I cannot recommend Laurie and Kidtastics enough! My son is more on the timid side but Laurie is fantastic at raising his confidence level and showing him that swimming is fun with toys, games and songs. Water safety is her number 1 priority and I know my son will be swimming in no time.
Ashly was amazing! Our 3 year old son wouldn’t put his face in the water, we were worried he wouldn’t do well with swim lessons. Ashly had him swimming like a fish by the end of the 2 weeks, going all the way under, we couldn’t believe it. I feel so much safer with him in the water now. Thank you Ashly!
This is our second summer with Kidtastics and we are so impressed once again with the progression our 5 1/2 year old made. Ashly is a wonderful instructor. She is patient, kind, and knowledgeable. She shared wonderful tips and made sure she knew what motivated our little swimmer. We really saw a jump in his confidence after two weeks. Thank you for a job well done! We are very happy to be repeat customers and will continue to refer other families to Kidtastics!

14What is the 411 on ear infections?
There are things you can do to help prevent them, such as, using products designed for prevention that can be purchased at a local drug store. This will help the first kind of ear infections caused by moisture being trapped in the outer ear canal. The second kind of ear infection is buildup in the middle ear which requires doctors attention. Most children can swim after 48 hours of being on ear medication, but check with your provider.
15Can children swim with tubes in their ears?
Yes, but we advise you speak with your physician first before doing so. Children with tubes may experience discomfort while floating on their back due to the way the tubes are built.
16What is the required attire?
Children should wear swim suits, sunscreen and swim diapers are required for all children under age 3, even those who are potty trained. At Kidtastics locations, like Salt & Sea Scuba, or community pools we require a particular diaper: Happy Nappy Duo is required.

. Please have your child ready to enter the water ten minutes prior to the start of their lesson.
17Do you allow goggles during swim class?
We do not suggest the use of goggle because we do not want the child to become dependent on the use of them. Also in the case of an emergency you want to have them react to the emergency of falling in to the water versus panicking about water being in their eyes.
Children swimming laps and improving stroke technique can buy our suggested goggles found on this

.
18What is the deciding factor between 30 and 45 minute lessons?
There are many deciding factors such as: amount of children, expectations of lessons, age of children, and prior swimming experience.
19If children are on different levels of swimming do you suggest them be in a different swim group?
An instructor can try to customize to accommodate both skill levels but if it doesn’t seem to be productive for both children than we would suggest to split the time between the students. i.e. in a 30 minute lesson one student gets 15 and then the other would get 15.
20If my children are at different skill levels & ages do I have to do two separate private lessons?
Yes and No! Yes we prefer every student to get as much time in the pool as possible and prefer back-to-back private lessons for your children. However, we can also offer your family a SPLIT lesson. A SPLIT lesson is a 45 minute lesson; where one child enters solely with the instructor for 22 minutes. Then we use 1 minute to switch kids. Then the 2nd child would get in alone with the instructor and get a 22 minute swim lesson in the water. This exchange must be done quickly by the parent. This can only be done with a semi-private 45 minute lesson.
21Do you provide a group for the lessons or do we have to put it together?
In all instances the client is responsible to get the group together.
22Are classes held on holidays?
Classes do not meet on holidays, please discuss with your instructor about any possible holidays.
23What should my child wear to swim class?
Children should wear swim suits, sunscreen and swim diapers are required for all children under age 3, even those who are potty trained. At Kidtastics locations, like Salt & Sea Scuba, or community pools we require a particular diaper: Happy Nappy Duo is required.

. Please have your child ready to enter the water ten minutes prior to the start of their lesson.
24Do you take photos or videos of my child during swim class?
Yes, Kidtastics will occasionally take photos/ videos of your child for promotional reason. Your consent is required on our enrollment form.
