What Others Are Saying About Sea Otter
The Best Swim Lessons!
We can’t thank you enough for working so hard and gently to teach Addison how to swim. He has come so far. It was wonderful to watch. He went from crying (for the first 6 lessons) to being a confident swimmer. I attribute this to the patience, demeanor, knowledge, skill, and efforts of his instructor. Thank you for having such a positive impact on our lives!
My 18-month-old Loves Teacher Cindy!
Every morning my son goes to his bottom drawer and pulls out his swim trunks. He brings them to me and repeats “Cindy, Cindy” over and over. (It is one of the few words he knows.) I made a scrapbook of Aiden and Cindy swimming together. It is his favorite book!
Children Come First at Sea Otter!
My grandson took swim lessons at Sea Otter. We quickly realized that Sea Otter would teach swimming and water safety skills in a fun, safe environment. His lessons were a wonderful experience! Thank you Sea Otter for providing a place of excellence where children come first.
Started Swim Lessons to Make Bath Time Better
I took my granddaughter to swim lessons to make bath time more enjoyable. Washing her hair was a nightmare! I never dreamed that 2 months later she would be swimming underwater and jumping into the pool by herself. I’m so grateful to her instructor for encouraging me to stick with it (after several lessons of screaming). Now bath time is fun!! My family loves Sea Otter Swim Lessons!
