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.

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.

She's the most effective and caring swim teacher you can find. My 9 year old has been going to her for years and my 5 year old just started this year. We've gone through countless swim schools in the Chula Vista, El Cajon, and rancho San Diego area.. even tried private lessons there. They weren't nearly effective as Miss Teri.

At the first party the lifeguard (I'm forgetting her name) had to rescue one little girl who got caught underwater. Yesterday at the 8 year old party, Vanessa was EXCELLENT. Prompt, kind, professional and watched over (13) 5-10 year olds for 3 hours. It would have made me crazy but she was amazing. Really cannot recommend this business highly enough for peace of mind and professionalism. Thank you so much!

The ratio was one instructor to 2 children, so they definitely got the one-on-one instruction. By the end of the session they were jumping off the high diving board into a 12 feet deep pool! It was important to me to have my kids learn how to swim, and I'm so glad they have this program available!!

There are not enough lifeguards for 3 pools and 50+ swimming and learning. There were only two…read morelifeguards throughout my daughter's swimming lesson that are watching 3 pools. They don't even pay attention! The last day my daughter nearly drowned! Luckily I was watching her and I ran and pulled her out of the pool! 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!

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!
