PediAquatics Swim School

"I cannot more highly recommend Sarah Dodge (and I do: to every other mom I meet!) She is endlessly patient, cheerful, professional, and an outstanding teacher. She taught my son to swim and float independently at 9 months old, giving me wonderful peace of mind. My son cried (and still cries) at every single swim lesson, but would come home and beg to get in the pool. It was hard to press through the emotion as a mom and keep bringing him to swim lessons, but Sarah's excellent skill helped me keep going, and her cheerful attitude helped me take a deep breath and remind myself why I was doing this for my son. By 16 months, my son was a complete water bug, playing independently in our pool, and it's still his favorite thing to do. Whenever we go back to "Ms. Sarah's" house, he starts crying, but I know we are giving him something he loves and will keep him safe, even if he doesn't like to do the hard work for it. I recommend Sarah to every other parent of young children I meet, and I show everybody the videos of my son swimming on his own. This is an investment of time, emotion, and finances, but has been a gift to my son and our family that we consider to be priceless! Thank you, Pediaquatics!"

"I recently took my child to PediAquatics Swim School and I am extremely impressed with the experience we had. As a parent, I know how important it is for young children to learn to swim, and PediAquatics offers the perfect environment for them to do so. The instructor, Sarah, was simply amazing. She was kind, patient and made my child feel comfortable in the water. She took the time to explain each step of the lesson and made sure my child understood what was expected of her. I appreciated how Sarah made the lesson fun and engaging while still focusing on safety. One thing that really stood out to me was how the lessons were staged. As a parent, it's tough to imagine your child in a situation where they could be drowning. By taking them to PediAquatics, I was able to see my child in a safe and controlled environment where he was learning vital swim skills. It puts my mind at ease knowing that my child is learning to swim and could potentially save his life in an emergency situation. Overall, I highly recommend PediAquatics Swim School. The importance of swimming lessons for young children cannot be overstated, and the instruction at PediAquatics is top-notch. Sarah was amazing with my child and I am so grateful for the safe and nurturing environment they provide."

"Sarah does such a wonderful job teaching babies how to self rescue! My daughter started swim when she was six months old. She could swim before she could walk! Of course, doing the refreshers and maintenance was important to help foster a love for swimming and to help her become confident in the water. This year, at two and a half, she absolutely loves swimming on her own after the refresher! Thank you Sarah for making this momma feel safe with her baby in the water!"

"Ms. Sarah is a lifesaver. My kids started out last fall crying and clinging to me when they saw the water. Today, they jump with no hesitation into the deep end with a huge grin on their faces. There is no comparison to the work Ms. Sarah does. She is the most patient and compassionate person. My kids run to her and can’t wait to tell her about their week. I would not trade my experience with her for anything. Knowing my children are not only confident but completely capable swimmers at 2 and 3 years old helps put my mind at ease. Thank you Ms. Sarah for being so dedicated to keeping our children safe."

"Sarah and Pediaquatics are absolutely amazing. She taught our 18month old to swim & float in just 4 weeks. He went from screaming and crying to smiling and playing when placed in the pool. No amount of money can buy the reassurance felt of knowing your little one can swim and float on their own in the extreme case of an accident. Thank you Pediaquatics!"
