Frequently Asked Questions
What age should my child start lessons?
Participating in year-round swim lessons is the most effective way for your child to become a safe and confident swimmer and helps them retain more knowledge for longer periods of time. Swimming occasionally throughout the year can create a gap in swimming skills. Children may then have to relearn those skills upon returning to swim lessons instead of immediately jumping into new skills.
Why does Aqua-Tots recommend year-round swimming lessons?
We recommend year-round swimming lessons for children because the continuity helps them retain more knowledge for a longer period of time. With the gap created by seasonal swimming lessons, children tend to regress from their swimming skill level; this ultimately results in having to refresh those skills before they can build new skills.
What is your student to instructor ratio?
We provide small class sizes to help ensure a safe environment for your child to learn to swim.
- Our Group Lessons have a maximum of 4 students to 1 instructor—one of the lowest ratios in the industry.
- Our Semi-Private Lessons have a class ratio of 2 students to 1 instructor.
- Our Private Lessons provide one-on-one instruction.
How long are swim lessons?
Swim lessons at Aqua-Tots Swim Schools last 30 minutes. We’ve found this to be the ideal length of time that young children can focus and learn while still having fun.
When can I sign up for swim lessons?
Families can enroll at any time for lessons. We are open year-round!
What training do your swim instructors have?
All Aqua-Tots Swim Schools Water Safety Instructors (AT-WSI) have completed 40+ hours of intensive in-classroom and in-water training as well as written and in-water exams.

Frequently Asked Questions
What age should my child start lessons?
We recommend that children start swim lessons as early as 4 months old, but if your child is older than that, it’s always a good time to start! The proven Aqua-Tots curriculum is designed to teach children of all ages and abilities how to become safe and confident swimmers for life.

The Aqua-Tots Full Circle of Safety
Our Full Circle of Safety measures have been effective at keeping families healthy and preventing the spread of COVID-19 in our schools. At this time, we have chosen to continue a modified swim school environment for the health of our families and staff, safety of our swim lessons and cleanliness of our facility.
Additionally, a properly maintained and sanitized pool is considered a safe environment for children and families. According to the Centers for Disease Control & Prevention,
“CDC is not aware of any scientific reports of the virus that causes COVID-19 spreading to people through the water in pools, hot tubs, or water playgrounds. Plus, proper operation of public pools, hot tubs, and water playgrounds (such as at an apartment complex or owned by a community) and disinfection of the water (with chlorine or bromine) should inactivate the virus.”
The Aqua-Tots Full Circle of Safety measures may include:
- Face masks for all front desk staff
- Face shields for all swim instructors during lessons
- Limiting in-school attendance to one parent/guardian per swim student
- Daily wellness checks for all staff
- Reduced class sizes
- Curriculum adjustments to reduce face contact during swim lessons
- Enhanced school-wide sanitation procedures throughout the day
- Hand sanitizing stations for continuous use
- Increased pool chemistry checks throughout the day
- Sanitation of all pool toys used in our lessons between each class
- Tables and chairs adjusted to meet social distancing guidelines
- Play area temporarily closed
- Swimsuit dryers, hair dryers, and hand dryers temporarily unavailable
