"Our 6-year-old son has a lot of anxiety and is very sensitive. Previous swim lessons were scary for him-he refused to put his face in the water. After just four lessons with Emily, he swam across the pool underwater on his own. Amazing!"

“We absolutely love Little Fish Swim School! Emily and the instructors use toys and play to make lessons so fun that my kids don’t even realize how much they’re learning. Their methods are incredibly effective, and we’ve seen so much progress and confidence in the water. The pool is always warm, which makes a huge difference. My kids genuinely look forward to every lesson. I highly recommend!”

“I can't recommend Little Fish Swim School enough! From the moment we enrolled, the experience has been really great. The instructors are highly skilled, patient, and kind. My 3 year old has made a lot of progress and seeing his confidence grow has been a great experience as well.”
Adam Stagnaro
“Whole-hearted recommendation here for Little Fish Swim School! Emily and Sage have worked absolute magic with our 6yo who has been afraid to go head-under-water for years, despite successive (other) swim schools and teachers. Emily got her to break the ice a couple of weeks ago and Sage has been reinforcing and incorporating new skills. She's now so stoked about getting in the pool and going underwater. What a change! Thanks LFSS… and to those thinking about checking them out: do it!”

“My two kids have been learning to swim with Little Fish. The instructors are magical and have helped us get past water nervousness and now my kids are so proud of their new skills.”

Little Fish Swim School offers unlimited scheduling, rescheduling, and canceling with more than 24 hours notice for our regular one-on-one lessons. When you book a lesson we reserve that slot just for you and we incur pool costs and instructor fees that can't be recovered if you cancel with less than 24 hours notice. As a small business, we ask that you do your best to give us as much notice as possible so we can fill your slot. A cancellation with less than 24 hours notice will be forfeited and cannot be refunded.
Swim intensives can be cancelled up to 2 weeks prior to the session and the credits can be transferred to regular one-on-one lessons or rescheduled to another session. Cancellations within 2 weeks or less of the session start date can only be rescheduled or transferred to lesson credits if the spot can be filled from the waiting lists. Cancellation requests for credit must be made in writing by emailing us at littlefishswimschoolcalifornia@gmail.com. No rescheduling or makeups offered for missed lessons due to the one-on-one nature of the daily intensives. Swim intensives are non refundable.
Our lessons expire one year after purchase - please try not to purchase more lessons than you can use in a year. However, we can update expiration dates if you have trouble scheduling or rescheduling lessons. Reach out any time and we'll help you extend.
We do not offer refunds on unused lesson credits, but expiration dates are easily extended - just send us an email. Cancellations made less than 24 hours before a lesson are also non-refundable.
