5-star rated by parents and swimmers alike

Starting swim lessons for our 16 month old during the pandemic (with us spending more time at home) was the best thing we have ever done! Her grandparents have a pool at their house so pool safety is a high priority for our family. Teaching her to swim especially in Florida was a must. We couldn't have asked for a better instructor. Joel has been so helpful in teaching her the fundamentals of swimming and reminding us how to practice with her throughout the week. We have seen her progress so quickly in just 9 lessons and are sad our lessons are almost over. We are so grateful we found sunsational swim school so our little one is more comfortable and confident around the water!

Chelsey was extremely patient with Maddie. She taught her crucial life-saving skills in the pool. Maddie loves seeing Chelsey and we are certainly going to miss her. Chelsey worked through my stubborn girl's antics and found ways to teach important information and still be enough fun. I'm so appreciative of having Chelsey as an instructor. I admit that I had rushed Maddie into lessons too soon when she was one. To see what she's been able to learn this year has been incredible. We certainly feel so much safer knowing that she can swim the length of the pool, knows to go to the shallow, can also float, monkeywalk the side of the pool, and just has so much more understanding of what to do when falling in the pool. Thank you, Chelsey! We're your #1 fans!

'Sydnie was an absolute delight to work with. Our baby is 13 months old. Not only did she make him feel comfortable with her, but he actually clung to her! He is so comfortable in the water now. She taught him to climb out of the pool to safety within the first week. The only downside us that he can now climb on (and over) the couch ????. I would highly recommend Sydnie. We all feel a little safer with a pool and lake in the back yard. Thanks Sydnie!!!' Kelly E.

Susan exceeded expectations, combining patience, skill, and remarkable understanding of toddler challenges. Her warm demeanor made swimming lessons less daunting and more fun for our 2.5-year-old. Her focus extends beyond teaching swimming to imparting invaluable water safety skills. In a brief period, our child's swimming abilities and love for water blossomed significantly. Susan doesn't merely teach swimming, she inspires a lifelong passion for it. Highly recommended for parents seeking a safe, enjoyable, and effective swimming environment for their little ones.

We absolutely loved having Mrs. Ashley for swim lessons this summer! She was so kind and patient with our 3-year-old and really helped him build confidence in the water. She was always willing to work with our schedule and made each lesson such a positive experience. With her help, he was able to pass all of his Tadpole skills, and we are so proud of how far he’s come!<br />We definitely love Mrs. Ashley in this house! Our only complaint is that she was only here for the summer, because we’re so sad he’ll have to change instructors. We would recommend her in a heartbeat! ❤️

Caryn is absolutely amazing! She is punctual, but most importantly, she is an excellent swimming instruction. From the very first class, our 1.5 yr old daughter, Sofia, learned skills that we could not get her to learn in group lessons. After 6 classes, Sofia can monkey crawl along our pool, float on her own, and knows the basic swimming skills that make me feel more comfortable her being around our pool. We will definitely contact Caryn next swimming season!

5 reasons to start swim lessons for your baby now

Many Saint Cloud 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.

As a former competitive swimmer and current scuba diver, I love to make sure that my students have the fundamental skills to be safe and have fun so they can live life to the fullest. I grew up around pools and going to the ocean. This inspired me to become a lifeguard. As a lifeguard, I realized most people don't have the security I grew up with and enter the water with fear and anxiety. As I worked and executed more rescues during the summer season, I wanted to do something to make a difference. I started teaching swim lessons in February 2018. From infants to adults, I work with anyone who's willing to learn.

Swimming has been the biggest and most consistent part of my life. I started swimming competitiely at 7 and eventually became a swim instructor and lifeguard at 14 at my team pool. I've taught all ages from infants up to grandparents of all leves starting with water safety up to stroke technique and swim team coaching. I moved to Orlando in 2019 to lifeguard at Disney World and eventually Universal and now currently am a Montessori preschool teacher ontop of teaching swim lessons. I believe that water safety is for anyone regardless of age or location and the earlier we start, the safer we all can be!

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 Saint Cloud. 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 Saint Cloud, 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 Saint Cloud 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 Orlando, helping your little one feel confident and safe early on.

Absolutely. Every Sunsational instructor in Saint Cloud 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 Saint Cloud 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 Saint Cloud, 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 Orlando. 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 Saint Cloud, 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.
