We love goldfish!! My kiddo moved up the levels quickly b/c the teachers there are very good at what they do. I can't believe bear paddle and kids first swim are even in the same league as goldfish. We went to both of those places. Other parents told me their kids have been taking lessons at bear paddle for 2 years without knowing how to swim. That's such a waste of time! We found goldfish from a neighbor and it's been amazing. I love the vibe there. Shout out to Ava, Ethan !!

We've been coming for weekly lessons for about 2 and a half years, and my two children (7 and 4) went from non-swimmers to being capable and confident swimmers! The staff is friendly, kind, and make the lessons fun.

I purchased a 10-session package for my daughter and, unfortunately, our experience steadily declined. During the six lessons she attended, her instructor changed constantly. Because each substitute instructor seemed unfamiliar with her progress, every lesson felt like starting over with a different routine. Instead of building confidence, she became increasingly frustrated and eventually left class in tears, telling me she didn’t want to return. When I explained the situation to the front desk, I was reassured that it wasn’t a problem. I was specifically told that the remaining four lessons would be converted into make-up tokens that would remain valid for 12 months. At no point was I told there were any additional conditions or costs required to use those lessons. I made a note on my calendar and periodically checked with my daughter to see if she was ready to try swimming again. Today, she finally said yes. I called the school and was told she still had four make-up tokens on her account and that all I needed to do was enroll her in a class to use them. When I went online to register, I was prompted to pay over $100 for a full month of lessons. Assuming it was an error, I called back. Only then was it fully explained to me that I could only use the make-up tokens if I re-enrolled as a continuously paying monthly customer. In other words, I have to spend additional money before I can use lessons I’ve already paid for. That requirement was never disclosed when I was told my unused lessons would be converted into make-up tokens. Had I known, I would have made a very different decision at the time. Management’s “solution” was to allow me to use only one of my four remaining lessons, meaning I would still lose the other three unless I resumed paying for monthly membership. This feels incredibly misleading and unfair. Families should be clearly informed of all restrictions before making decisions about lessons they’ve already purchased. Instead, I was left believing my remaining lessons were simply available for my daughter whenever she was ready to return. Adding to the disappointment is the ongoing inconsistency with instructors, lanes, and the overall lesson experience. I experienced these same issues several years ago with my older daughter, so it’s disappointing to see that nothing appears to have improved. Unless this situation is resolved and I’m allowed to use the lessons I already paid for without having to purchase additional months, I cannot recommend Goldfish Swim School Mount Laurel. I have left a message with corporate as well and am awaiting a fair resolution. Edited to add: I do not deny that I was told “when you’re ready, you may re-enroll your daughter to utilize your makeup tokens”. A reasonable customer I understood “re-enroll” to mean register for a class, not pay for an additional month of membership before I can access lessons I’ve already paid for. No one explained that re-enrollment required paying another month’s tuition, which is why I feel extremely misled and will be pursuing further action.
