I brought my child to Scotty at Aquachild 20 years ago. She will be graduating from College this year. That was the best investment we made. Our daughter took to the water once she finished her Aquachild course. I highly recommend this course for ANY child living in South Florida as we are surrounded by swimming pools and bodies of water.

I love this school!!! The staff are all very friendly and dedicated to each child. Our little one started their initial program class when he was 15 months old and his results have just been outstanding. His confidence in the water grew each day more and more thanks to his instructor Scotty, who, despite the fact that our son was a tough little cookie, did a great job with him. He always provided words of encouragement and showed great dedication and patience with our son. I highly recommend this school to every parent, you will not regret it. There is nothing like knowing your little one will be safe in the water. More so, when they are taught by experienced, professional, and dedicated instructors who work day in and day out to give their best to every child who steps foot in this school. Thank you Scotty!

Aquachild is hands down the BEST swimming school in south Florida, I cannot recommend it enough! Our little girl was terrified of the water, we tried swimming lessons for years with no results. Within one week with Scotty, she was full head under water. By the two weeks mark, she started floating and by the end of the program we gained a little fish, now we have to plead with her to get out of the water. Scotty achieves miracles with a smile on his face, a calm and friendly demeanor towards the kids and always professional and on-time. He’s well beyond five stars.

I took my 3 yr old and 22month old to Scotty and Alex. We had a scare with my 23month old half way through the program. He slipped in the pool and before anyone can grab him he had reached the edge and climbed out of the pool! Before Aquachild he would freeze under water until someone took him out. The boys have gained so much confidence in the water and also now know to respect it. Thanks to Aquachild my boys know how to save them selves if they fall in the pool by floating or swimming to edge or stairs.Thank you Scotty and Alex!

This is the best swim school. If you want your child to thrive at swimming while gaining confidence then look no further. Scotty, Laura and the team there are amazing and we are truly grateful for our 2 kids who learned to float and swim with Scotty. Thank you!

We had the best experience here. I couldn’t recommend them enough. For our initial program we had the instructor Alex and he’s so professional and amazing with the kids. I couldn’t be happier with his work with my 2 year old son. I look forward to continuing maintenance swimming with aqua child as well!Thanks Alex and Laura!

This school is absolutely AMAZING!!! My 2 yo daughter is currently in their initial program and her swim instructor Alex is the absolute BEST! He’s so patient and gentle with her and as a first time mom, it brings such comfort to my heart to know that she’s in good hands and she’s comfortable with him. Plus, she is actually floating and doing phenomenal!! I already signed her up for the maintenance program and she didn’t even complete the initial one yet lol. I highly recommend this school to any parent looking for a program for their kids to learn to swim with instructors who are gentle and caring. My interaction with management has also been great and are very responsive to any request that I had via email or phone. You won’t regret it trust me!

We absolutely loved our experience at Aquachild Swim School! We wanted to expose our 22 month old to some basic water safety skills given we are always surrounded by water here in South Florida, and we are so happy we did! We were hesitant at first given we live in Miami Shores and thus an 18min drive away and the intensive schedule of a daily class x 6 weeks, but ultimately so glad we made it work!We enrolled our toddler in the intensive 6 week class, and although there were some tears and crying during the first few classes (which his swim instructor fully anticipated and prepared us for!), it was unbelievable how in a matter of days our toddler actually loved being in the water and was learning all sorts of skills. Scotty, his instructor, is very patient and so great with kids. It is clear he has so many years of experience teaching kids how to swim/float and just how passionate he is about what he does. I am so grateful to him and his school.On his graduation day, our toddler was able to float on his own while wearing a heavy sweater, pants, and shoes, as well as swim from and to his instructor, as well as some guided diving for toys. It was hard to believe it was the same toddler in such a short period of time (10min daily x 6 weeks).Additionally, the front desk is very organized and very responsive to questions and/or changes in schedule, which is so appreciated.We signed up for maintenance classes and were impressed he didn’t forget his skills even after a 2 month hiatus. Looking forward to more skills as we continue maintenance classes.Highly recommend!!

Aquachild is incredible! Our daughter had turned six and really wasn’t into swimming or being in pools. We were concerned she wouldn’t even get in the water.Enter Aquachild…. their approach of a short, daily lesson had our daughter swimming in less than two weeks. Incredible. Her instructor, Alex, is very patient. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

Amazing and exceptional swimming atmosphere!!!Aquachild is a terrific community and safe place to enroll for swimming lessons and so much more. For some time I wanted my son to take swimming lessons; not in a crowded public pool, but rather one-on-one classes with an instructor. Aquachild was just the perfect setting. Enrolling my son into their swimming program was the best decision ever; so much so that I decided to take lessons myself. It’s never too late to learn.Our instructor was Reed, who was very patient. Although my son already loved the water, Coach Reed gave him the confidence to swim and have fun while doing it. These lessons are tailored to achieving your personal progress and improving the execution of each technique, learning at your own pace. Within a period of four months we learned so much, from different swimming strokes to safety and survival skills. These lessons are a priceless lifelong investment and worth every penny. Safety should never come at a cost. It’s impressive and wonderful to watch infants and children of all ages shake off their fears of the water and become fully engaged and committed to swimming and having fun at Aquachild.The instructors are very encouraging and friendly. You always feel welcomed, whether you’re entering or leaving the facility. Thank you Scotty and Laura as well as your staff for making our experience such an enjoyable and memorable one. It was truly a blessing!!! I highly recommend Aquachild!!! You’ll be glad that you entrusted these professionals to impart their knowledge and expertise.

The best decision I made was when I decided to sign my kids up for swimming lessons at Aqhachid Swim School. Instructor Scotty Was so kind and knowledgeable. My kids, 4 and 7, are comfortable in the water and swimming! We will be back next summer for their stoke and maintenance class.

We started our swim journey for our 19 month old 6 weeks ago and I can honestly say this was by far the coolest experience for her! Her instructor Scotty is very passionate and skilled in what he does. It’s incredible how much she’s learned in such a short time frame. We will definitely be taking our next baby here and will recommend this swim school to all of our friends and family! You guys are the best!

Aquachild offers what few swim schools can offer which is integrity, patience, perseverance, flexibility, stability, enthusiasm, encouragement and of course the one and only Scotty! My son gained confidence and you made him face his fears. I am forever thankful and grateful for patiently giving him a lesson that will last him a lifetime.
