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.

You bring the swimmers. InstaSwim finds the instructor.

How it works

Three steps to the first splash.

1

Tell us about your swimmers

ZIP code, ages, comfort level and lesson length. About two minutes, no card.

2

Meet your instructor

An instructor who serves Brighton accepts, and you get their profile. Not the right fit? Request a new instructor, up to 2 times per package.

3

Confirm and swim

Pick a start date, pay your invoice, and meet at your pool. Weekly payment plans are available on packages.

What a lesson looks like

Built around your swimmer.

30 minutes to 2 hours

Choose 30, 45, 60 or 90 minutes or 2 hours, plus Mommy & Me for a parent swimming with a little one. Packages of 6 and 12 lower the per-lesson rate.

Six months to adults

Babies get water comfort with a parent. Preschoolers learn to float, kick and breathe. Older kids build strokes, and teens work on technique and endurance.

A pool your family arranges

Your building's pool, a condo or HOA pool, or a backyard pool. InstaSwim does not provide pools, and any pool fees go to the pool, not InstaSwim.

No pool yet? You can still book.

Not every family has a pool at home, and that is fine. When the booking app asks about a pool, choose No or Not sure yet, then pick a plan. InstaSwim does not own pools, and any pool fees are paid to the pool, not to InstaSwim.

Floating, kicking, breath control and getting back to the wall. Short, playful lessons that build confidence first.

Ages 7 to 12

Stroke building

Teens

Technique and endurance

Stroke refinement and fitness for teens, including preparation for high school swim season.

The kids were very upset and scared about going under the water. Oscar was compassionate and made the kids feel safe, encouraged them and made a bid deal about their accomplishments.

Claire is great. She connects well with my kids and they’ve shown immediate progress.

On time, friendly, knew how to work with a 4 year old, got him to progress in one lesson. My son really liked Quinn.

Talk to the InstaSwim team
Can I pick my instructor?

InstaSwim matches you with an independent instructor based on your location and each swimmer's age and comfort level. You see the instructor's profile before you pay, and you can request a new instructor up to 2 times per package.

Do we need our own pool in Brighton?

Lessons happen at a pool your family arranges: your building's pool, a condo or HOA pool, or a backyard pool. InstaSwim does not own or provide pools. Any pool fees are paid to the pool, not to InstaSwim.

Can a private swim instructor come to our home or building pool in Brighton?

Yes, when the pool allows it. For a building, condo or HOA pool, check the pool rules for guests and instructors first, then set the day and time with your instructor. InstaSwim does not arrange pool access.

Do you offer baby and toddler swim lessons in Brighton?

Yes. Mommy & Me lessons put a parent in the water with babies and toddlers from 6 months, and lessons for ages 3 to 6 work on floating, kicking and breath control. Tell us each child's age when you register so the match accounts for it.

When do I pay?

Registering is free. Once your instructor is confirmed and you agree on a start date, your invoice arrives by email. Packages of 2 or more lessons can be paid in weekly installments.

What does it cost in Brighton?

Rates are per lesson and set for your ZIP code. Packages of 6 and 12 lessons lower the per-lesson rate. There is a $20 registration fee per swimmer, refunded only if no lessons take place.

What if the instructor is not the right fit?

Ask for a new instructor from your Match Hub. You can do this up to 2 times per package, and InstaSwim finds the next instructor for you.

Who are the instructors in Brighton?

Independent contractors on the InstaSwim roster, 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 safety and conduct training, and has signed the contractor agreement. Experience is provided by the instructor, and families review the matched instructor before booking.

Which towns near Brighton do your instructors serve?

Instructors on the Brighton roster also travel to Watertown Town, Watertown, Brookline, Cambridge, Newton and Belmont, within their own travel radius. Type your ZIP above to see the rates for your town.

Will lessons make my child water safe?

No lesson makes anyone safe around water. Lessons build skills, comfort and good habits. An adult should watch every swimmer, every time, at the pool and near open water.
