Beyond their size, small businesses are defined by their spirit. And at the helm are their intrepid founders—scrappy, ambitious, and resilient. They invent and build things despite uncertainty, because it’s what drives them. Their risks lead to innovation that moves the world forward. And we need them.
We really love the instructors at this Goldfish location - everyone is fun, kind and patient. The facilities are very clean, especially since it’s brand new. I also appreciate how they have multiple stalls, showers and supplies available for everyone to use. The activities they have the minis do are always a good time (slides, boats, etc.). It’s nice that they sing to the kids, although I personally would prefer that time be used for more training, so they can progress faster. Overall, it’s a great way for your child to not only learn swimming basics, but also follow directions, burn energy and interact with others.
We’ve had a great experience at Goldfish Swim School in Santa Ana. Both of my sons attend lessons here, and the staff is consistently patient, professional, and welcoming. One of my sons is Deaf, and the team has gone above and beyond by learning basic sign language to communicate with him and help him feel comfortable and included. Their commitment to inclusivity and care truly stands out. I highly recommend this swim school to any family.
We accompanied our daughter recently when she her took her 4-year-old to Goldfish for her weekly swim lesson at this school. We were super-impressed by the cleanliness of the facility; the helpful instructors; and the quality of the lessons. Our grand-daughter loves Goldfish and looks forward eagerly to her weekly swim lesson. We feel great that our grand-daughter is learning how to swim safely!
My 4 and 5 years old have been attending this new Goldfish school for a month. We have an amazing experience, and noticed that the staff at Goldfish are very professional. They are very focus on keeping the kid safe and their goal is to teach all lil ones to learn to swim. They also assess your child’s swimming level at the end of every class. The facility is clean and well kept. We are very satisfied.
We absolutely love Goldfish Swim School! From the moment you walk in, you’re greeted with warm smiles and a welcoming atmosphere. The entire staff is amazing — caring, patient, and truly dedicated to helping kids feel comfortable and confident in the water. Our daughter was very nervous when she first started, but the instructors went above and beyond to make her feel safe and supported during those first few classes. Their patience and encouragement made all the difference, and now she loves going every week! A special shoutout to instructor Ann — she’s fantastic! So kind, attentive, and great at connecting with the kids. But honestly, every staff member we’ve encountered has been wonderful. We also love the little bonus at the end of each class — our daughter looks forward to picking out a prize every time! Highly recommend Goldfish Swim School for any parent looking for a safe, fun, and nurturing environment for swim lessons.
