Our kids had a teacher they really liked at the Eastlake location (Hannah) and she quit on a day's notice, so the kids were without a class. When we showed up at the appointed new day they told us, there was no class for the 3 of them and so we left. Unfortunately I paid 2 months dues for 3 kids and I'm stuck. The YMCA is way better. Avoid!

I recently expressed my concerns regarding not having any progress for the past 1.5 months. My girls got stuck with the percentage they're in (beginner @ level 7), but their coach explained to me some of the important factors. Swimmers need to be consistent in order to advance. I have told our coach that the girls practice in our neighborhood pool when we're able. And I have asked what could be the potential plan so we can all work together towards any progress, and they have responded to me respectfully. The staff here are really very pleasant, you just have to also be respectful when expressing any concerns.

We love Aqua-Tots! We've had my son enrolled in weekly classes here since he was 8 months old, and…read moreit has helped his confidence in the water so much. He's now 3 and is SO comfortable in the pool. He loves swimming and jumping in from the edge, can turn around and get himself back to the wall, climb out on his own, and independently back float. Santi has been his coach for over a year now, and my son absolutely loves him. He works so well with him and has made swimming such a positive experience. I also love how the program progresses with their age. When they're little, you're in the pool with them, which is such great bonding time. Now my son is in class independently. The transition was hard for him for the first few weeks, but it ended up being really good for him and helped build his confidence being away from me. The app is super easy to use for scheduling, canceling, and rescheduling lessons. You can also see your child's progress, instructor notes, and progress reports right in the app. The changing rooms and bathrooms are always clean. I also had one issue with an instructor in the past, and when I brought my concern to the front desk, they listened, took it seriously, and immediately took action to remove that instructor from my son's class. I was extremely thankful for how quickly and professionally they handled my concern. My only criticism is that I wish they pushed the kids a little more as they progress, especially letting them swim farther distances independently. I'd love to see my son challenged a little more now that he's so comfortable in the water. I also wish they maximized the full 30-minute class better. There are quite a few classes where the first 10 minutes or so are spent with the instructor teaching or explaining things to another trainee. When you're paying for a 30-minute lesson, that's a pretty significant portion of the class, and I'd much rather see that time focused on getting the kids as much actual swimming and practice time as possible. We've had such a positive experience here over the years. I highly recommend Aqua-Tots, especially if you want your child to become comfortable, confident, and safe in the water!

Apparently she's been working there for long time and doesn't care about the customer. There are many seniors with walkers, canes and wheels chairs and she just doesn't care about their well being. Her focus is to lock up the door as soon as the pool closes. The pool hours are still on pandemic operating hours, it closes at 2.30pm till 4pm???? Why close the pool in the middle of the day and weekend? The hours are not clearly posted on the entrance, only in fine print. The city of Chula Vista has the funds to run the facility with longer hours but don't. If the city pay lifeguards according to market rate, they can find lifeguards. The YMCA has 6 lifeguards for a pool smaller than this pool. The worst locker room, shower only drip when more than 1 person turn it on. The shower tower is the same type on public beaches, it's not acceptable in 2024. Chula Vista funding is not well spent for the general public, instead, the funding is spent on the wealthy East Lake areas!

I told the lifeguard and her reply was sorry there are a lot of kids here. Exactly and not enough lifeguards that pays attention. I told the supervisor in the office and she just said where was the lifeguard? Exactly! I do have to say instructors seem great but safety is not their priority! First day is chaotic with everyone in the kids pool and testing them has no rhyme and reason how your child is placed into a level. I do not recommend Turtle swim go to YMCA where safety comes first!

Thank you to Dr. Rey or Ray our HHA Instructor for always having that backing support to us. (most especially days before the state exam). Ms. Amber for being our most understanding instructor from our CNA class. Our class needs a lot of efforts to make our own self-review. (ofcourse its a matter of doing your own part as well as a student and dont just rely on instructors). If you want to have a better communication, information and update i may suggest going straight to Ms. Tuba. Go to her office and personally look for her. She's one of the most reliable you can ever speak to. Ms. Jasmine the girl who always give everyone a big smile can give you information as well, she's so welcoming and trust me, i feel so comfortable asking her questions (more than the others) who cuts me off and out and got no response at all. Ms. Tuba is the one and very first person i always go to. And i thank her for all. So much Gratitude as i may say! My reviews are pretty much blunt but truly polite. I would like to thank Ms. Wilma, as she never gets tired of handling make up class students (who never cared to listen) But im not one of them. I am the person who listen, never really gets tired to listen. Because from listening comes with learning, and with learning comes with knowledge and with knowledge comes with power. Thank you. p.s I mentioned those that had given me the greatest impact of change. From being a banker, business owner, Guidance counselor to Instructor (from other country). now shift to Health care. If you want a special treatment and much of attention like a VIP - youre not fitted to enroll here. But if your purpose it to learn, only just to learn and have the knowledge you can fit here. Again, If you want to have all information you needed, GO STRAIGHT TO MS. TUBA. (she responds even in the middle of her tight schedules and sorry! In the middle of the night) only to just give you information and get you to the nearest possible schedule to take. Gracias! SDMC
