Watersafe Swim School - Los Alamitos - Los Alamitos, California

My child has been going here for just a few lessons but so far, so good. The instructors have been engaging and encouraging during the lessons and even update me on the progress afterwards.

Parking can be rough as the parking lot is tight and with so many students and parents it can get a bit chaotic. With that being said give yourself extra time and patience to get there, find parking, and walk in.

The front desk team has been friendly and helpful! There was a hiccup with billing that caused them to follow up with me unnecessarily as the error was on their end.

Giving them 4 stars as the billing error was a training issue and should be addressed.

Overall, we’re happy and excited to be attending lessons here!

When our son was 6 weeks old we put him in swim lessons at Watersafe. It was such a great experience then. We have recently returned to Watersafe after a long break and two additional kids later. Monica is so kind she informed us about make-up classes we have on our account and how we can use them. We absolutely enjoy Watersafe swim school in Los Alamitos and the great experience they continue to provide our family. Thank you so much Monica and Watersafe!

This is my first class and teacher kat is a very nice person. After 3 months I'm still here with a great improvement and a new teacher.

Love this place, we have been to many swimming lessons at 4 different places, public and private. We drive 20 to 30 minutes to get here. This place gives you the fastest results, focused attention on your child and what your child needs. It's not too long where the child gets bored or fatigued. At first 15 minutes doesn't sound long but when you consider group classes are 30 minutes, with a ratio of 1 teacher to 4 or 6, the instructor spends ~ 6-7 minutes with each child, sometimes less because one kid is crying or needs extra attention. At Watersafe each child gets the full 15 minutes. This is the place where our daughter actually learned to swim. Love it!

Today was our first day at the Los Al location. The front staff was very friendly and helpful, showed us around the facility. During our parent-tot class we had Megan do an amazing lesson. She was very encouraging and instructed us on how best to position the baby in the water. Having taught swim lessons and coached for over 25 years, I can say Megan is an amazing teacher and knows her stuff. We look forward to our next class with her.

We absolutely LOVE Watersafe Swim School (Los Alamitos location)! We drive from the Valley all the way to swim class every week because we absolutely love the teachers here! Both my boys started Parent-Tot at 3 months. My oldest son is currently in a private class with Ms. Jessica on Thursdays. He now is a grade 4/5 swimmer. His confidence in swimming has sky rocketed and its all thanks to Ms. Jessica. She understands him but also pushes him to be better. He loves Ms. Jessica and is very comfortable with her. My youngest son is in parent-tot with Ms. Ashley H on Thursdays. He started rolling over and back floating all by himself before he turned 1. Ms. Ashley is the absolute best! She’s fun, nurturing, and super sweet. Wesley learned how to roll quickly because of her. I absolutely recommend this swim school to everyone! It’s easy to schedule make-up classes if you miss. The front office staff is so helpful and so sweet. We have been coming for over 2 years!

We started at Watersafe in October when they had “all you can swim” and had cycled through many wonderful teachers, but when my daughter (2 yo) had Ms Alisha for a class we knew we wanted to continue doing private lessons exclusively with her! Ms Alisha is the best!!! My daughter absolutely loves her and will ask for Ms Alisha frequently through the week and we always have to tell her to wait for Wednesday to roll around again when her lessons take place. Ms Alisha is very patient and sweet. She knows when to push my daughter out of her swimming comfort zone to learn and when it’s just not a good day and she may just need some fun water play. This is so important for 2 year olds when they just have some moody days. My daughter just had her first survival test where she was dropped in the pool fully clothed and was able to flip over on her back and float by herself without instruction! So much progress in such a short period of time! Thank you Ms Alisha, we love you!!!

Watersafe is everything you want in a swim school. The staff are friendly and accommodating, the pool is clean, everything runs efficiently, and, most importantly, they teach your child how to be comfortable in the water. I was skeptical that a swim school could teach survival and proper technique to children of such a young age, but Watersafe does just that. Alisha, our son’s teacher, truly cares about his development and does a fantastic job of pushing guiding him through new skills with a steady hand. I highly recommend going to Watersafe, you won’t be disappointed!
