Experience and teaching history are provided by the instructor. Instructors are independent contractors, not InstaSwim employees. Every instructor you can be matched with has been background checked, keeps a CPR and First Aid card on file, has finished InstaSwim's safety and conduct training, and has signed the contractor agreement. These are eligibility steps, not an endorsement. Review your matched instructor's profile before your first lesson. Some instructors shown are not taking new families right now; your match comes from instructors who are.

Maureen was great with my son who was nervous going into the lesson. She was very patient, made him feel confident, and he had a great time!
Liz did a great job teaching our 14 month old how to feel safe, confident and happy in a backyard pool. She is a very kind-hearted, competent, knowledgeable instructor who clicked immediately with the baby and taught her survival skills while making pool time fun. Highly recommend her.
After just two lessons with Maureen, we are absolutely amazed at our son's progress! She has given him so much confidence and he’s swimming under the water and trying things we never thought he'd do!! She's incredibly patient, encouraging and supportive, and she makes the lessons so much fun! He now loves being in the water and feels so proud - he can't wait for his next lesson! We are so grateful we found Miss Maureen, she’s the best!!!
