What People are Saying

  • “We have 3 children and have been working with Eileen for over 5 years. Eileen has great range from working with kids when they are just acclimating to the water all the way to precision technique and stroke perfection. In fact, Eileen taught our oldest daughter to swim all the way through to her making the swim team. They all look forward to their lessons every week. Eileen is focused on safety, proper techniques and fun. Eileen is very caring and the kids gravitate to her easily and feel safe with her. Eileen also communicates very well with us about our kids' progress and she is on time and reliable. We couldn't recommend a better swim instructor.”

  • “I cannot speak highly enough about Eileen! My 7 year old daughter has been refusing to learn to swim for years, most of the times even refusing to get inside a pool. We tried several instructors who all failed at helping her achieve any level of confidence or interest. I don’t know how Eileen could make such a miracle, but in less than three months and only a few lessons, my kid not only is now extremely comfortable in the water but she is also swimming with confidence and good technique! Eileen is extremely patient, pleasant, and has a magic way to deal with the children. She can find the perfect balance between giving plenty of encouragement while pushing them to complete challenging tasks that are out of their comfort zone. She is an excellent instructor and a very welcoming and warm person. Eileen’s teaching skills are excellent and I strongly recommend her to anyone who is willing to learn to swim or improve their technique.”

    -Ilenia

  • "We couldn't be more grateful that we crossed paths and met Eileen to be our children's swim teacher. The kids light up in the pool, always have fun, and feel protected and safe. Eileen is caring, kind, fun, and truly great at teaching. Eileen is in tune with each child, their comfort, interest, capacity and knows how to implement technique so they learn, develop, and become confident in the water. She is also tremendously organized, a great communicator, timely, and easy to coordinate with. We look forward to many more swim lessons with her, and may even take some ourselves too!"

    -Sapna

  • “Eileen is an amazing swim teacher. Our 5-year-old son took to Eileen on Day 1 and absolutely loves learning from her and being in the pool with her. In just a few short weeks, Eileen has already taught him to swim to the wall and jump into her arms! My wife, son and I are incredibly big fans of Eileen.”
