Goldfish is amazing. My daughter loves to go to her swimming lesson every Saturday. She really likes her instructor Ryan because he is good and honest. Two thumbs up Goldfish. Thanks Ryan.

Our little guy has been taking lessons at Goldfish since he was four months old - so we're getting close to two years at this point. Water safety is highly important to us since we spend a lot of time around the water over the summer, and swimming is our one non-negotiable activity. Chloe has been our Mini 2 instructor for approximately six months now, and she's lovely. She's so good with the minis (and their parents, too!), and it's obvious that she's as excited and invested in the skill development and achievements of her little ones as us parents are. She keeps the class running smoothly and it's obvious that she knows the timing and content very well. My little guy gets excited when he sees that he's at the pool, and he's always very excited to see Chloe. It's also a lot of fun to see him using his skills - both swimming and safety skills - when we're out at public swims or at the lake. He's picked up a lot since he was four months old and it's awesome to see how comfortable he is in the water, showing off his skills even when he isn't in class. The Goldfish curriculum and structure has worked incredibly well for our little guy and it has been well worth the cost of the classes compared to those offered by the local recreation centres. The smaller class sizes and attention from the instructors have played a big part in it, and I can't wait to see how it now toddler keeps excelling.

Great concept and good instructors. Consistency is of course key and unfortunately we’ve had a number of instructors the month we’ve been here so now that we’ve had an instructor change hoping that things get better and more on track. However despite that, so key and important and the constant schedule is great!

My daughter started lessons at Goldfish at the end of 2024 and she loves it! The instructors and staff have been so helpful. A big thank you to Eli (my daughters main instructor) for helping her build her confidence in the water. His patience and teaching skills have helped her immensely. Thank you!

My son has been in swimming lessons since he was 9 months old. He will be 4 soon and Andrew has been teaching him since fall 2024. He is such an excellent instructor he has taken him from barely kicking to full length front crawl and now working on back crawl. He is fun and keeps him smiling and looking forward to his lesson each week. We can’t thank you enough Andrew!!!

Maisie teaches our daughter in a mini 3 class and she’s amazing! Very patient despite our toddler not always the best listener. She’s also helped her gain confidence in her skills to the point where she can swim 5 ft unassisted! We’ve been at goldfish for over 1.5 years now and highly recommend it to anyone who wants their kids to excel in swimming and water safety

We have enjoyed the last 2 years with Goldfish. Having the same teacher every week was great for my kids and helped them work on their weaknesses. Whereas most of the instructors we’ve had the pleasure of working with over the years and our changing schedules, Matteo, Ethan, and Asha made a specific impression on my kids! Thank you!
