This is the second review I'm writing, and I will say the exact same thing I said when we just started the lessons: instructor Susy is the BEST!! Thank you Sunsational Swim School for matching us with Susy! My baby (2 years old) and my niece (5 years old) -both took private lessons- are now 2 little HAPPY and SAFE fishies in the water..!! Thanks, Thanks Thanks!

Monica Z.

Adrian is amazing with my 2-year-old! He’s patient, upbeat, and makes safety fun. Our son went from nervous to excited for the water—kicking, blowing bubbles, and trying his back float. Adrian always takes the time to explain what he’s doing and uses playful games that keep little ones engaged. You can tell he truly cares about helping kids feel confident in the water, and that makes all the difference. Couldn’t recommend him more!

Nally C.

Alex is doing a very good job with Joshua. I've seen a lot of progress in just a short amount of time. We would recommend him to everyone

Geoffrey Y.

We got matched with Jennifer and she’s been wonderful with our son. He’s made incredible progress. To anyone who gets Jennifer as an instructor, you can confidently feel that you have someone who really knows what they’re doing as well as having the ability to connect with kids - Huston Lorenzo

'We started at-home lessons with Adrian AKA Aquaman and my kids have progressed further in 3 months than they did in a whole year when they were doing group classes! Adrian personalizes each lesson and is very dedicated to the kids' success. He is flexible with our availability and my kids have a blast with him. My 4-year-old is almost swimming independently and my 2 year-old is not too far behind. We couldn't be happier so we even extended the lessons!' -Claudia G.

Claudia G.

'I've already recommended Sunsational Swim School to multiple friends - this service is just the best! I'm excited to sign up for more lessons for my toddler. He's learned a ton in just a few weeks - including how to find the edge of the pool and pull himself out all by himself. The instructor is fantastic and I can't speak highly enough of everyone involved.' -Sara C.

Sara C.

Our swim instructor, Alex, was great with my two kids. He was very patient and they are both little swimmers now. Also very easy to schedule and work with doing make ups. Thank you Alex and Sunsational Swim.

Roslyn B.

Our swim instructor was Adrian (Aquaman). He was great with our 1.5 yr old. He personalized the lessons and approach depending on what my son was receptive to. My son started learning skills from the first lesson. Adrian tried incorporating different pool toys/tools to see what my son would be comfortable with and to aid in learning. The majority of the lessons focused on drowning prevention and survival skills in the pool, and I feel like we made great strides in helping my little one be safer in the water.

Maria D.

I located a Sundational Swim School Private Swim Lessons online. Everyone I spoke with was very professional and responsive. They are very organized. They were able to match us with an awesome swim instructor in Miami. The instructor was also very professional, prompt and did an excellent job in teaching a very young child new beginner swimming skills. She worked with our schedule and did an excellent job. I would definitely recommend both the company and the swim instructor, Matison.

William W.

Over there summer we had instructor Marianela (Nela) Marquina, teach our little Lorenzo swimming lessons. I was blown away by how prepared she was. She came equipped with toys and patience. Lorenzo never had an issue with water, as a matter of fact he has an affinity for water, which is the reason why we wanted to give him lessons. By the end of our time with Nela, Lorenzo was closing his mouth and holding his breath underwater, and successfully reaching the walls of the pool. We were thoroughly impressed with his progress with her. I would highly recommend her to anyone who is looking to show their babies the first lessons of swimming.

Priscilla A.

I am extremely satisfied with Matison's level of professionalism when working my 2 year old son. My son is very active and had never been in school so I knew swimming lessons were going to be a challenge. Ms. Mati was always patient with my son and always spoke to him in an easy to understand manner. I have a pool so was very concerned about water safety. I am very appreciative of her. Thank you Ms. Mati! Valdes Family

Rebecca V.

Sunsational has been great in helping us match with a great teacher for our toddler!

Darshan S.

I had a great experience with Eva. She was gentle and kind which is appreciated because my daughter was only 16 months old. She made my daughter love the water. Couldn't ask for more. Thank you, Eva!

Stephanie v.

They connected us to a great isntructor in Miami, Florida. Bryan was amazing and super kind to our baby.

Noelia J.

'My son is 13 months old and has been working with Adrian since the middle of September. Adrian is very patient and kind with my son. You can tell Adrian really cares in how he celebrates with my son once he completes a new skill. I can tell how much better and more comfortable my son has become in the water and that brings me tremendous peace- and a lot of that is due to Adrian. I'm really happy with my decision to start my son in lessons when i did and look forward to continuing them in the future so that my son has all the tools he needs to feel safe and comfortable in the water.' -Lia F.

Marianela (Nela) Marquina, increíble y paciente con mis dos hijos. Mis hijos cofían en ella, y realmente disfrutaron su tiempo con ella. Ella es increíble y no podríamos estar más agradecidos. Gracias Marianela!

NaQueshia M.

Thank you Marianela for the wonderful lessons! We did a class with our 6mo son (until he was about 10 mo) that got him comfortable in the pool, going underwater and other basics. Marianela was a great teacher!

Stefania D.

Mathew was a great swim instructor to my 2 boys. He made an effort to connect with them and develop a relationship which helped my boys learn better and look forward to their swim lessons. Thank you!

Thank you, Marianela for the wonderful lessons! We did a class with our 6mo son (until he was about 10 mo) that got him comfortable in the pool, going underwater, and other basics. Marinela was a great teacher and great with the baby!

Stefania D.

Our instructor Hailey was communicative, easy to coordinate with, and most importantly made our toddler feel comfortable in the water and excited to swim!

Amanda G.

I searched for a while before settling for Sunsational and I'm glad I picked them! My baby, along with two friends, had their first swim lessons with Marianela Marquina and she was just beyond amazing! Sunsational matched us with her and after that, we had all our communication directly with Nela who was ALWAYS super friendly, accommodating and generally had the best attitude. Our babies all felt comfortable with her and so did the parents! 10/10 would recommend.

Stefania D.

Marinella is fantastic with our 2-year-old! She knows exactly how to push JUST enough to keep her growing and becoming more comfortable in the water, without her becoming scared or overwhelmed! She makes the whole lesson seen like playtime while still teaching her the basics of swimming. We couldn't be happier with Marinella! -Nate D.

Nate D.

Our 23 month daughter just completed a swim course with Marianela and we couldn't be happier. Marianela is patient and very kind. She made the class a lot of fun and taught me great tips and tricks to practice between classes. I highly recommend Sunsation Swim School and Marianela!!

Laura S.

Because of the pandemic, we decided to do private swim lessons in my pool! Nela is great!!! Marianela Marquina is so patient and focused with a plethora of information for parents and grandparents. Nela was here 3 times a week all summer and my grandson was loving his lessons. Now we have a new addition and looking forward to getting him started with Nela soon as the water warms up.

5 reasons to start swim lessons for your baby now

Many Homestead parents wonder if their baby is too young to start learning to swim. They think babies will eventually learn the skills on their own, or that the skill isn’t necessary. Here’s why starting lessons early is a smart choice:

Water safety starts early

Drowning is the leading cause of accidental death for children under four. Babies are naturally curious, which is why baby swimming lessons make so much sense. An awareness of the water, and water safety skills, could very well save your child’s life one day.

Decreased risk of drowning

It’s not always possible to watch your child every second, and water is often part of everyday life—from bathtubs and backyard pools to beaches, splash pads, and family outings. Young children can be at risk around even small amounts of water, especially infants & toddlers under 5. Swimming lessons can help children build comfort in the water and begin developing important water safety skills as part of a broader approach to drowning prevention.

Encourages social interaction

Swimming and playing in the pool with parents and other babies helps boost babies' social development. Babies learn through shared experiences, laughter, and engaging in activities together. Your child shouldn't have to skip these character-forming moments due to a fear of the water or because you simply haven't found the time for swim lessons.

Builds their strength

For babies, swimming helps strengthen their muscles, improve coordination, and enhance their motor skills – all without any unnecessary stress on joints. Plus, the water’s resistance provides a full-body workout, even for the tiniest of swimmers. Swimming may even help learn to walk sooner thanks to better muscle control.

Lifelong skill that starts early

Swimming is a skill for life. Providing your baby with swimming lessons opens up a whole new arena of fun and fitness that they can participate in all their lives. If you don't know how to swim, consider taking a parent and baby swim class together or taking adult swim lessons on your own. Create core memories in the water, together!

How parent and baby swim lessons help build confidence around the water

Babies as young as six months old benefit from pool time in the arms of a trusted adult. Infant swim lessons allow your child to enjoy the water before they have a chance to learn fear. Positive pool experiences help babies remain calm so they can progress to learn effective water navigation skills such as kicking and back floats.

How parent and baby swim lessons help image

75%of children who drown were out of sight for five minutes or less

9 out of 10drowning deaths occur while an adult is present

The benefits of swim lessons extend beyond the pool. The sensory and motor stimulation resulting from pool time creates new neurons that positively impact confidence and even intelligence. Bilateral movements, or using both sides of the body, help increase the connections between the two hemispheres of the brain, which will later help with skills like language development, spatial awareness and reading.

How to prepare your baby for swim lessons

Not ready for a formal class yet? Start at home! Simple activities in the bathtub, like gently pouring water over your baby’s head, introducing words like “kick” and “splash”, or laying them on their back in shallow water, can help them feel comfortable in the water before their first lesson.

When you’re ready for the pool, help your baby be successful with these tips:

1
Feed them at least 30 minutes before a lesson to prevent tummy discomfort
2
Pack essentials like swim diapers, towels, dry clothes, and fresh diapers
3
Arrive early so you have time to get ready
4
Ease into the water to keep the experience positive

Water safety is always the number one priority

Even the most comprehensive water training program isn’t enough to drown-proof your child. Babies should always be within arm’s reach in the water, and children should never swim unsupervised. The goal of baby swim lessons is to help build comfort in the water and introduce foundational water safety skills, which may help reduce the chance of accidental drowning as part of a broader approach to water safety. This includes active supervision, pool fences and barriers, alarms, and other safety measures, but risk can never be eliminated completely. Even if your little one was the star of the class, it’s important to remain vigilant with supervision to help ensure positive and safe experiences in and around the water for years to come.

Got questions?

We have answers. What age can babies start swim lessons?

No. Sunsational Swim School’s infant swim lessons are based on a child-centered and caring approach that focuses on building trust and rapport with the instructor and wonderment and respect of the water. When designing your baby’s swim lesson plan, our instructors consider all aspects of the well-being of your baby, including physical and emotional. Your swim instructor will create a safe environment for your baby to learn water-safety skills that include back floating, roll over breathing, “swim-float-swim”, the monkey crawl, and what to do after a fall into the pool. All of these skills are taught in a way that’s both fun and educational, using games, repetition, and even songs, at a pace that’s healthy for your little one.

Yes! Sunsational specializes in private, at-home baby swimming lessons, where our instructors come directly to your pool or community facility in Homestead. It’s the easiest way for your baby to learn in a calm, familiar setting.

We make scheduling easy. Morning, afternoon, evening, and weekend lessons are avaialble 6AM-8PM to fit your family’s lifestyle. You choose the days, times and number of lessons per week that works for you. Because all lessons are private, scheduling is completely flexible and can be adjusted for vacations or weather. In Homestead, our instructors teach year-round, so you can start lessons whenever you’re ready.

Every child is unique and develops at their own pace. Physical and emotional readiness, motor skills and willingness all play a role in the pace your baby learns. However, the most common and most influential factors in the student’s learning pace we find is repetition and consistency. We recommend our baby students take 3 lessons per week for maximum skill retention and fast progression. Most of our students make significant progress within 12 to 18 lessons in our baby swim classes.

Yes. Swimming is not only defined as the four major swim strokes, but the ability to propel through the water. Your baby can learn how to use their little limbs, breathing and sense of direction to deliberately move from point a to b in the water, once they start walking. These skill sets are learned in a progressive manner and each child learns at a different pace. Our infant swim lesson teachers are experienced in coaching your baby to learn these skills in a fun, encouraging, and accelerated way. Even if your baby is not ready to swim, we'll work on swim and safety skills like blowing bubbles (breath control), kicking, rolling over onto our back and floating.

Your baby’s first swim lesson is designed to be gentle, fun, and completely pressure-free. The goal isn’t to make your baby swim right away—it’s to help them feel safe, happy, and relaxed in the water. Tears on the first day are not unexpected!

Your Sunsational instructor will start by introducing your baby to the pool gradually: gentle splashing, floating with support, and playful water exploration. Parents or caregivers are always encouraged to be present.

Most Homestead parents begin lessons around 6 months old, when babies can comfortably hold their heads up and start exploring the water. Babies who have early exposure to swim lessons and the water are proven to have reduced anxieties and emotional obstacles learning how to swim. The water at this age is a familiar place as it’s similar to floating in the womb. Sunsational’s certified instructors offer private, at-home baby swimming lessons throughout Miami, helping your little one feel confident and safe early on.

Absolutely. Every Sunsational instructor in Homestead is certified in CPR and insured under our company liability insurance policy. What's more, every Sunsational Swim instructor has previous teaching experience, and most have at least of 2 seasons of professional aquatic experience. We emphasize comfort, floating, and water awareness—always at your baby’s pace.

Every child learns differently, but with consistent, one-on-one instruction, most Homestead infants begin floating and showing swim readiness within our 12 or 18 lesson package. Sunsational’s personalized approach—taught in your own pool—helps babies progress faster than in group lessons. We find that the most common and most influential factors in the student’s learning pace are repetition and consistency. To that end, we recommend our baby students take 3 lessons per week for maximum skill retention and fast progression.

While we specialize in private, at-home infant swim classes in Homestead, you do not need to have a pool to register for our lessons. Our infant swim teachers near you can meet you at any pool of your choice in Miami. In some areas, we even have some swim instructors who can provide a pool for your lessons. To find out if we have instructors with pool access in your specific area, you can begin a registration here

We understand if you're concerned about selecting the right swim instructor for your lessons, because we are too! Our full-time, dedicated matching team carefully reviews your registration and hand selects a swim instructor for your lessons based on your swimmer's age, goals and your schedule. You'll receive a detailed instructor profile with experience, certifications, and reviews. If you'd like to request a specific instructor in Homestead, we'll do our best to accommodate. But rest assured that we stand behind each of our swim instructors and selections with our Satisfaction Guarantee.

For baby and some toddler lessons, parent participation is encouraged for building water comfort. For older children (typically ages 2+), parents are not specifically encouraged to be in the water, as our one-on-one private instruction is designed to build independence. However, we always require a responsible adult to be present on the premises for all lessons with minors. If you have specific preferences or concerns, our team is happy to accommodate them in your registration. We tailor each lesson to your comfort and goals.
