We have had an excellent experience with Little Otter . Prior to Little Otter, my child took lessons for years at YMCA and Big Blue. Although those experiences were fine, it wasn't until Little Otter that she began to truly make progress in her swimming capabilities. They helped her build her confidence in the water and have fostered a safe love for the water and swimming. It really just seems like as an organization, from the owners to each teacher we have experienced, they have mastered the skill of successfully teaching children to swim. If Little Otter is an option, the opportunity is well worth it.

We had a great first experience at little otter swim school. Love having the app to sign up for classes. Check in for our first lesson was easy, we were then greeted by an amazing staff. We were shown around the facilities and she explained everything we needed to know. Ms. Shelly was our teacher and she did a great job with our son. It was his first time so she explained everything as we went along. Love how they play games n sing in the water 🥰 the littles seem to love it as well. We’re excited to make this our new swim home!!

My son attended this swim school, at first he was enjoying it until we started to have problems with an instructor, after we told the manager a few instructors started being impatient and being aggressive with him. The manager didn’t care at all even though we have video evidence. Slamming his legs into the water to the point it was hard for him to walk right after and being told to listen , when he clearly had water up his nose and inside his goggles and was trying to fix it cause he couldn’t breath or see. In the pic, he is facing the water and the teacher stretched his leg so far back. He’s been swimming there since June was taught to not kick high and this teacher was so aggressive and caused damage.

Amazing and ideal swim school for babies 6 month and up! The staff is very nice and friendly as well as the teachers! My son loves swimming very much! Thankful for the swim class being available on the weekend. Been going for a year now and love the experience for my son. Hoping to get my daughter into swim classes as well when we can afford it. Edit: Still a great swim school. My son is now 3 and still enjoys his classes. The staff and teachers are great and very patient.
