This, I think, is the some of the VERY best money we have spent on any of our children. Alyssa is…read morea true professional and the peace of mind she has given me is priceless. I cannot believe the transformation in my child. She went from having a pretty intense fear of water to being a total fish-loving to swim independently! As soon as it is a bit warmer, I can't wait to get her back in the water with Alyssa! We LOVE ISR!

I can't say enough about what Alyssa has done for our family. While other swimming lessons taught…read moremy sons to splash and kick on command, ISR has taught my children to swim, quickly, eyes open, fully underwater, and to float completely unassisted while wearing heavy winter clothing. Serious, life saving skills. I was hesitant at first to sign up for 3 reasons: time commitment, expense, and more than anything else, fear that my kids would freak out and develop a fear of water. As for time commitment - you get used to the routine of coming daily very quickly and it becomes a fun activity that is just a part of your day. As for expense, first, it is an investment in your child's safety. Second, given the training and serious time investment Alyssa puts forward with each student, you get more than your money's worth. And as for fear: the opposite came true. My boys are so PROUD of what they have accomplished (because it's hard work!), and are more excited than ever to be in the water. I would not hesitate to recommend ISR lessons with Alyssa to anyone and everyone.

i think that your experience will depend on your instructor and, if you have to encounter one, what…read moremanager you have to talk to. I've had very pleasant and positive experiences here, and I've had horrid ones. In regard to the latter, a manager derisively spoke to me about the language their website used, because I was too stupid to understand that their written words and options weren't what they meant, and then hung up on me when I asked her for her name. And she then called me back and lied to me that she had hung up on me. But the instructors have been nice and attentive enough--some have been wonderful, some not so engaged. But given what I experienced as management's tone to a customer, I don't don't fault staff for not being fully enthralled with their job.

The instructors are great overall, and some are simply naturals at this. The front desk staff is fantastic as well. They provide excellent customer service and support. They have always been pleasant when we have asked for anything. I actually look forward to our visits there, seeing the instructors and saying hi to the front staff. Because you go routinely, you end up feeling inclusiveness--kind of like being a regular at a restaurant or bar! If you're considering Goldfish, give it a try. We did and will continue.

Swimwest Fitchburg has been an amazing place for our kids! We started our first at 9 months old…read moreand he has progressed rapidly through the levels. He is now 4 and has amazing confidence in the water, knows how to get to the edge or roll to float and can get about 10 feet across the water alone. Our younger one we started at 5 months and she is not yet 2 but swimming with a teacher and 2 other students. She also has learned to roll to float and put her hands out to get to the step. We have been very impressed with their flexibility in scheduling, their nurturing encouragement to make all kids feel comfortable in the water and the overall confidence and love our kids have learned to have for swimming thanks to the staff at Swimwest Fitchburg! Pros: The pool and area inside the pool are warm, the space is clean and the pool water does not hurt the kids eyes (just the right amount of chemicals), the teachers or deck person checks in with you about your child's progress, and the staff is friendly and fun - you can tell they enjoy their jobs! Cons: The weekends and evenings can be crowded but your child still gets the attention he or she needs in the water and classes can fill up quickly. *We love the Fitchburg location due to size and smaller community feel*
