“This is my 3rd time doing swim lessons, 1st time with Rene. My son is 21 months old, I did a swim survival class when he was 6 months, and we did a parks and rec class when he was 13 months. Both options previously done were 1 time a week and honestly I saw no improvement or noticeable swim abilities gained. This time we made the commitment to do the 2 week long Mon-Thurs class at Rancho Swim Lessons, it was a success! First, Rene and her team are wonderful. My son really took a liking to ” coach Andrew” so much that we didn’t have to get in the water after the first few days. Second, over the 2 weeks my son was able to blow bubbles, kick regularly, get comfortable with and without the flotation device, jumped in the pool on his own, and went underwater without freaking out or ingesting tons of water. It was really fun to see his progression and excitement for the pool. We are now continuing our 2nd session with Rene because we wanted to keep up the momentum. Rene was very honest about expectations. She recommended we 1 session in Spring and 1 session in Summer kind of as a bootcamp and then we work on skills in between, so not overly salesy trying to get us to sign up for tons of sessions. She recommended what was best for my son. I know it’s hard for working parents to commit to Mon-Thurs for 2 weeks, so we had 5 different adults that were able to take him depending on our work schedule. I was worth the juggling because he is much more comfortable in the water. My parents have a pool without a gate and to me it was really important to help ensure my son would be safe and able to swim early. Highly recommend Rene and her team!” – Vanessa P.
“I am so glad we found Rene for swim lessons! we started with our daughter (she was 4), and wouldn’t even put her face in the water. By the end of our first session, she was swimming on her own! We continued with another session right away to keep building her confidence with swimming. We continued for another session and she got to learn how to dive! We also took our son (now 2) for a few sessions, and he LOVES being in the water now! It amazes me how young kids can be taught to swim. It is so very important for us to teach them young, especially now that we have a home with a pool! We are so thankful for Rene
“My grandson started his swimming lessons at Rancho Swim Lessons this week. I wish to express my gratitude to Rene for her caring patient teaching! She is a fantastic instructor! She is encouraging, kind, loving, upbeat and friendly!! She makes you feel at home the moment you walk in and is child focused and positive. She gives excellent feedback to parents and have a multitude of techniques to help the child swim and adapt to a new experience!! I recommend her without any hesitation!!
“We recently enrolled my son in classes here. The teachers are FABULOUS. They are nice but firm enough to get everything done with my son who is 2.5 and a bit scared. He is already making progress and I highly recommend these classes to anyone! The older kids can already swim like little fish, it’s amazing! The pool is kept clean and the backyard is beautiful. Definitely try classes with Rene and Staff.” – Nicole K
” Rene and her staff do an incredible job! My little one started super fearful of the water but they were so patient with her and she’s learned a LOT! Now she can’t wait to get in the pool! Most importantly, she is getting water safe. We love Rancho Swim Lessons and will be back!” – E.B.
“The best thing I could have done for my son! I found out by complete accident on yelp and I’m so glad I did. We are in our second round of classes. My son loves his teachers they are all super kind and patient with kids. I love that they have 2 teachers in the water, parents also get in the water with younger beginner children. The kids learn to get out of the pool on their own among so many other things. The prices are very reasonable and the kids enjoy the lessons. You can tell Rene puts so much time and effort into her business! If you are thinking of enrolling your child in lessons look no further! I enrolled my son in the city of Fontana for swimming lessons and I wish I had known about Rene sooner. These lessons are by far better than what the city offers.” Denise T.
“We started coming to Rene last summer and completed 4 sessions. We are currently on session 2 of this year. Rene is awesome, she is sweet and nice but still firm. We have also had Sage, Jessica, and Alexis as instructors and you can tell that Rene has put in a lot of effort in creating a great team for her company. Our daughter loves coming (4 years old ) and we look forward to our 18 month old starting soon. Watching your child be able to swim across a pool themselves out without using the steps is pretty incredible. They stress water safety which is so important. Highly recommend them to others we know.
“I highly recommend Rancho Swim Lessons! They truly know what they are doing are are amazing with kids. The atmosphere is great, the child to teacher ratio is perfect and I really can’t say enough positive things about all of it. We will never go anywhere else for swim lessons, I wish I would have brought my son here sooner!” – Courtnie A.
“This isn’t just a cut-n-paste “swim training program”. Under Rene’s direction, the swim teachers foster an environment of paramount attention and concern for each child’s safety throughout the entire curriculum. Teachers: Sage, Amaya, and Jessica are all wonderful and your child will be in safe, nurturing and caring hands as they dive into the world of basic water safety and learning to swim. Kudos to Rancho Swim Lessons for timelessly working to refine their ELITE service product which is second to none! I encourage all parents to enroll your kid(s) to this program as soon as practical.” – Thom M.
“This is the best thing that has happened to my special ed daughter. She is having the best time of her life! Ms Alex and Ms Sage are her favorite trainers and she waits the whole week to jump in the pool on weekends. She is a slow learner but both the trainers have been patient with her all the way. The atmosphere is private and she gets full attention no matter what. She is getting one one one training and that’s what we need for her hence I am travelling from the High Desert to Rancho to get her swim lessons. As of last week my daughter is making immense progress and I recommend Rancho Swim Lessons to all the families who need help with their kids learning how to swim. Thank you Rene for being open to suggestions from me to help my daughter learn to swim.” – Pritesh S.
“Look no further folks, Rene is a toddler whisperer! I have a beautiful, loving, and stubborn two year old who prior to lessons did NOT like having water in her face. Bath time and showers were very fun.
We were able to do 3 sessions (6 weeks total ) and now I have a beautiful, loving, and stubborn mermaid. 🙂 It was a slow process but Rene kept plugging away at her and one day it just clicked. By the end of the lessons I had to drag my daughter away from the pool, a far cry from the first week when I had to get in with her. She will jump in with a Vest, Noodle, and on her own, she opens her eyes underwater, dives for rings, kicks from one end of the pool to the other. I am one proud Mama for sure! Now we just have to work on her blowing bubbles and coming up for a breath, but I’m confident (God forbid) she were to fall into a pool unattended she could get herself to the edge and get out. We cannot thank Rene and her staff enough for the breakthroughs we weren’t sure would happen!” – Shawntae T.
“Rene did an awesome job teaching all three of my kids to swim. She has a way with young children that inspires confidence in the most frightened child. I will recommend Rene to all my friends! Thank you!” – Chris B.
