Has been a great way for my daughter to enjoy activities during the pandemic. Most of the teachers are very patient and really try to bond with the students.

My daughter (5 yrs old) started with a fast track course and in less than 3 days she was able to float and was comfortable breathing underwater. In one week she was swimming and had begun mastering breathing. Trey, her instructor, was simply amazing! He gave her the confidence she needed and was patient enough to keep her motivated and focused while remaining playful and professional. She loved him and keeps on asking to go back to the pool to continue the learning. I just enrolled her again ..and she was very disappointed her first class was canceled!

Today was our first visit with this swim school. I was very impressed. My 3 year old is not familiar with swimming pools. So knowing him, I imagined that the class wouldnt go well. However, The instructors did absolutely phenomenal with assuring he was enjoying himself and he was comfortable. My husband enjoyed observing the class as well! Kudos to you all!

If you want to find a place to teach your child to swim, this is it. My wife trusts them, which is huge as she works in pool chemistry. If she could trust them their pool is good. The coaches are top notch.

We love swimming at Aquatots. The pool is warm and their make-up policy is flexible for my rotating schedule. The instructors we have had work will with the parents so we can teach our toddlers and gain confidence in their abilities as they grow.

My 4 year old was very nervous his first day but Derrick his instructor did an amazing job making him feel comfortable!! My son is on the spectrum so I knew he would be very nervous but I feel like Derrick actually cares and went out of his way to make my son feel confident in the water. I can’t wait to see how far my son goes with Derrick as his instructor ️ Amazing place

So far so good! I feel like the lessons are well thought out, and I appreciate the emphasis on safety and how the instructor typically gives the parent the reasoning and goal behind each exercise. I love the details! I feel that my daughter is gaining skills and confidence with each lesson. She is only 1 though, so Im not expecting her to swim laps just yet, lol! I have already recommended Aqua Tots for my little niece, who will be starting next week! The only thing I dont like is that we have yet to have the same instructor teach a lesson, even after 4 weeks. And they dont seem to be checking her card, or knowledgeable about my daughters progress. Most of the instructors have been very good, though!

I have both my girls here, one in level 3 and the oldest in level 4. They’ve had a total of four classes but their confidence in swimming has boosted !They love it and can’t wait to be back.It’s best if you do two to three classes a week that way they get use to it and remember more things.I would definitely recommend aqua tots and specially this location at Briarcliff !

This is my daughter’s second summer coming here and she absolutely loves it! All the instructors are so sweet to the kids and the managers and front desk people are always so welcoming. Rescheduling is so easy which is so important to me as i have a weird work schedule. I drive an hour to get here and i don’t mind at all since i know my daughter is having a great time and learning so much.

This is a fantastic facility! Best kept secret in Atlanta. The Instructors are patient and caring. I feel confident that all three of our children are much safer around water. Be sure to ask for Coach Derekk, Ashlyn, or Leslie! Top notch experience!

The staff is extremely professional and courteous. I love the atmosphere they create here. Definitely will be referring them to everyone I know. Jonathan and Ashlyn was awesome along with the rest of his crew .

Horrible! We received better results at our local YMCA and it was cheaper. The manager Mike should not be allowed to speak to children the way he does, luckily it wasn’t my child. They cancel classes with impossible makeup days and time....but won’t refund you. I think he even had the nerve to leave a review his self giving them 5 stars. Concentrate on great customer service and support, then you may receive positive feedback.

Aquatots is the cutest, kid friendly swimming class. Their staff is super friendly and accommodating. It has been a great experience! This is a must-visit for your family!

If you’re looking for swim lessons go somewhere else. 3 of the 4 lessons we paid for we canceled due to lack of instructors, I have called 3-4 times a week for the last 4 weeks trying to get in touch with Ben, the manager, to get a refund for the canceled classes and he will not return my calls. They stressed the importance of showing up every week so my son would get comfortable in the water and then they cancel 3 weeks in a row.

I have been incredibly disappointed in Aqua-tots. We have been going to them since late March but have so far had two classes cancelled on us, which they will not reimburse us for, instead insisting we must do a make-up class. However, it is next to impossible to schedule a make-up. Additionally, we have had a new instructor each week who does not know what our child has/has not done. There is supposedly a form that the instructors use to keep track, but nothing has been checked on our form (and my husband and I looked at some of the other forms, which all seem to be blank regardless of the age/level). Not worth it!

The staff is very accommodating with make-ups and scheduling. Also my children are now very comfortable in the water because of the lessons they have received.

Best swim program for kids, infant through older toddler ages. The instructors are very clam and patient with kids meeting their individual needs. But, at the same time helping to move child forward without feeling force or not meeting a set expectations. The Briacliff facility group treat kids as growing plus learning kids and not as adults. I will high recommend Aqua Tots for teaching kids healthy respect for learning hoy swim.

The instructors are professional and warm and despite the chaos of wet kids and parents everywhere, they run a tight ship. My 8-month old has had a great time splashing, floating, learning water safety, etc. Highly recommend for any age.

I came from Swimmerman and I can truly say at Aqua-Tots I love the make up days, the open space, and the daily updates on my childs progress. All these things Swimmerman doesnt have but Aqua-Tots does have and I LOVE it. Also Swimmerman has roaches in their changing area. When mentioned to the lady upfront she mentioned she knew about it. One was getting ready to craw in my purse until my child pointed it out..smh..Anyway..overall Aqua-Tots have been great and clean..thanks!

I’m one happy mother. We went to Aqua-Tots Swim Schools for 3.5 months - 3 days a week and spent a lot of $$$ for swim lessons. My daughter didn’t learn basic life saving skills. The frustration was real!!! I talked to the GM many times, asked them to push her and all I got was excuses!! I hate excuses and like seeing results.I made the decision to switch swim lessons and it was the best decision ever! We are 5 days in (2 more to go) and my daughter can swim! I wouldn’t recommend Aqua-Tots to anyone. Save your money and find a real swim instructor.

The staff is so welcoming and the facility is outstanding. My son has gone from not wanting to have anything to do with the pool to fully embracing it and asking all week when swim lessons are! Such an amazing experience to teach something so important!

4.9 STARSThis is a great place. They have incredible teachers and are very accommodating. The kids are learning to swim one day at a time. The set up is very nice, there is very comfortable seating for the parents.My one issue is that they have snacks and lollipops at KID LEVEL open for the taking... We usually are done around dinner time and damage control has become a nuisance. If they could just move the junk food...

Review №45

The GM here is a mean individual. The teachers have all been super nice and our daughter truly enjoy the swim classes. The GM however goes out of his way to scold the children when he feels like they are misbehaving. My daughter is only 2 and he decided to scold her for turning around. In doing so he made her cry. Even the teacher did not understand why he came over to talk with my daughter. He told us afterwards that it was a safety issue. We are not sure why he didnt just come to us since we were only about 5 feet away behind the glass.

This week was my daughter’s first time attending swimming classes at Aqua -Tots. The swimming instructors have exceeded my expectations. They are friendly and personable and don’t mind taking their time with her. I highly recommend this program for anyone who is interested in learning how to swim.
