Do not enroll your kids to this school.
They will over charge you even after you cancelled your subscription. My son didn’t attended to any of he’s classes last month and I called to canceled. Plus he didn’t learn anything while he was there in school. Be careful trying to cancel your subscription, they will give you a hard time and excuses to be able to charge you.

I had my daughter's 10th birthday party at goldfish. It was a wonderful experience for the children that was there and the parents. All the kids had such a great time and most importantly my daughter enjoyed her surprise birthday.
That lady is helping with the party and protecting the children as lifeguards also did a wonderful job. I love how they put the children safety first which I appreciate.
Thank you goldfish and staff for giving my child a wonderful experience!

Awesome swim school! My daughter advanced so quickly and was able to move up in level in only 3 seasons. They are really in-tune with your child’s strengths and weaknesses and able to zone in on what they need to work on

We’ve had a great experience at this swim school! The facility is always clean — even the showers are spotless — and the staff is welcoming and professional. I want to give a special shoutout to my Briannalyn, who has been incredibly helpful and informative. Her hospitality alone makes me want to keep bringing my daughter back. She goes above and beyond to make sure families feel comfortable and supported. Thanks to her and the team, my daughter looks forward to every lesson!

Goldfish Swim School has been a great experience overall. The facility is clean and kid-friendly, and the staff is welcoming. Bri was absolutely fantastic — she was friendly, knowledgeable, and made the process easy. She was also super informative, answering all my questions clearly and thoroughly. I appreciated her patience and professionalism. Definitely a solid choice for swim lessons.
If you're looking for a swim school that combines top-notch instruction with a fun, supportive environment, Goldfish is the place to go. And if you get the chance to work with Bri, you're in excellent hands!

Hello Goldfish
My daughters have been swimming at goldfish for the past 3 or 4 years. the facility is clean and accommodates with different time to fit a parent schedule. Brianalyn was super helpful during the time we sign up with scheduling and other information about the program.
Thank you so much!!

I highly recommend this swim school. My 5-year-old just finished two jump start weeks and made so much progress in that time. It was just amazing to see! My daughter absolutely loved her swim instructor, who was so patient and positive with her - thank you, Valerie!
I've been to many different swim schools with my older kids over the years, but this was definitely the best experience we've had. Not only is the instruction great, but also the facilities are clean and easy to use. This is an unsolicited review and I don't often take the time to write reviews, but after such a great experience, I thought it worth sharing.

Goldfish Swim School has been an absolute game-changer for our family, and I can’t recommend it highly enough. From the moment you walk through the doors, you’re greeted with a bright, welcoming environment that feels more like a fun aquatic playground than a swim school perfect for easing any nerves young swimmers might have.

What truly sets Goldfish apart, though, are the phenomenal swim instructors. Every coach we’ve encountered has been kind, patient, energetic, and incredibly skilled at working with children of all ages and swim levels. They strike the perfect balance between fun and focused instruction, making each lesson something the kids look forward to. 🐠💦

We absolutely love this swim school! The instructors are so patient, encouraging, and great with children. Our child went from clinging to us in the water to swimming around with confidence. The classes are well-structured, fun, and age-appropriate. It’s amazing to watch my son’s progress each week. Highly recommend to any parent looking to build water safety and confidence early on!

Goldfish swim school is a great place for your little ones to learn how to swim. The facility is bright and colorful and has multiple bathrooms, showers, and changing huts. Every member of the staff is kind and helpful. The pool is 90 degrees so little ones have a comfortable time during lessons. My daughter started lessons when she was six months old and now is an independent and confident swimmer at four years old. When your child takes lessons they move up levels as they master certain skills and they will move up fast! Classes are small and the teachers focus on each child's individual ability. We are proud to be a Goldfish family and I recommend them to everyone!

I can't say enough good things about Goldfish Norwalk ! Enrolling my kids here has been one of the best decisions we've made. The instructors are not only skilled and experienced but also incredibly patient and encouraging. They create a fun and safe environment where my kids feel comfortable in the water.

The curriculum is well-structured, focusing on essential swimming skills and water safety, which gives me peace of mind. I've seen my children grow in confidence and ability, mastering new strokes and techniques with every lesson.

The facility is clean and well-maintained, and the class sizes are just right, allowing for personalized attention. My kids look forward to their swim lessons every week, and it's heartwarming to see them so excited about learning.

If you're looking for a swim school that truly cares about its students and provides top-notch instruction, I highly recommend it here !

We also love the front desk staff , managers and entire team here !

All 3 of my kids are learning to swim or have learned to swim here! From the time they were little we started and haven’t looked back. Goldfish makes the experience fun, exciting and rewarding. The staff takes time to get to know the kids, work with them on a personal level and makes sure they’re progressing each week. I feel so confident that my kids have learned water safety and can swim independently thanks to Goldfish!

He has also taken some classes with Josh and he is awesome as well. Love it when I see my kid floating, is something I just couldn’t get him to do and Valerie has made him feel comfortable and succeed at floating, his swimming also keeps getting better class after class. There are really no complaints about this place, we love to go during the week and enjoy watching him. Could not give this place and these teachers more credit, they are awesome.

Goldfish Swimming School offers a welcoming embrace with its comfortably warm pool, making it especially suitable for the littlest swimmers. Their programs tailored for babies are commendable. However, a ripple in the water arises with the instructors, who could benefit from injecting a bit more energy and enthusiasm into their classes. Overall, it's a promising spot for budding swimmers, with room for just a splash more dedication from the teaching staff.

Bringing my son (infant) here. I think is a nice place. Not complicated to check in, and you can sit and watch your child do the class. Employees are friendly. They have showers, dressers, and box kind of storage to place your bags. Enough chairs to sit and observe the class.

SCAM! Avoid at all costs. They make it INCREDIBLY difficult to cancel - you have to wait 30 days and call at specific hours to speak to the “general manager.”

In terms of actual swim instruction the teachers are extremely lazy. Classes are pointless and boring. The instructors clearly don’t want to be there.

Do yourself a favor and go to ymca or anywhere else.

Throughout my daughter’s life, we have tried a few different programs in area. She loves swimming and actively participated in it during the summer but it can’t be difficult to find a great program all year round. After being referred to the Goldfish School, I was amazed at how quick they were to answer my questions, that variety of classes they have, and how passionate the team is to provide an excellent experience for the school of fish ( pun intended ;) )

After visiting for a free trial class, my daughter begged me to sign her up for classes and loves telling her friends about the fun she has at swim class. The teachers are especially skilled with their lessons, give substantial feedback so you know how your child is doing, and the front staff is also kind and help me whenever I forget swimsuits, towels, or even my mom brain ;) ( A special shout-out to Dasha who truly comes to the rescue when I have questions or need to buy another pair of goggles!

Overall, if you’re looking for an excellent swimming program with the great teachers, different levels of advancement, and a class your child will love- Look no further. The Goldfish Swimming school is what you’re looking for. You have nothing to lose with their free trial class and see the fish swim for yourself.

They scam you out of makeup swim classes. Fine print: you can only use makeup classes if you're enrolled in weekly classes so that means you'd have to double up in one week. Two of our classes were cancelled in one month due to weather and they wouldn't accommodate us unless we signed up for another month for $132. And yet they didn't have any times available for the age group.

My son likes his swimming lessons from the first time he came here. He learned how to swim , and he’s mastering his skills with every lesson. I’m proud to see his progress and appreciate professionalism and courtesy of the staff. It’s always easy to contact school with questions or concerns. Place is clean , with plenty rooms to change after lesson. They also are very kid friendly, which helps when I’m there with my little daughter. It’s fun place to learn and master your child swimming. Highly recommend to everyone!

From a distance and feedback from my girls they are learning and liking their time with Caitlin, their instructor. The facility has been clean, and the efficiency of the change over between classes and continued masking, has added to the trust of feeling things are well managed in regard to our health and safety.

The front desk staff were always courteous and efficient in measuring our temparatures and checking us in. Everyone always wears masks or face shield. Our infant class instructor was always cheerful and encouraging. The changing rooms and bathrooms were always clean, and water temparature was warm and perfect. Our 13-month old daughter and myself LOVED every class we took and we always had a blast. My husband took many pictures and videos while watching us taking the classes. We love going over the pictures and videos afterwards and sharing them with our family. We had so much fun and were very happy to have found Goldfish Swim School in Norwalk, Connecticut.

I’ll give the negative part of my review first. I e-mailed the night prior to a potentially snow day and the owners response next morning was simply “just saw this email.” The funny part is the owner himself couldn’t answer the 3-questions I asked him:

1) are you open tomorrow?
2) can I get a spot for tomorrow?
3) I assume I should just call in the am when you open?

So his useless answer didn’t help me...whatever. I call in the am at 8, and get put into the 12:30 last class. They said “well call you in case we need to cancel.” Great!

Well no! At 11:43 I call do triple check, ready to go out the door, and the person who answered said “yes it’s canceled.” Very casually , but not her fault.

Had I known earlier I wouldn’t have liked it but understood. I would have gone to do another toddler activity, all which are morning hours. Now I’m without swim or anything else.

So, answer simple questions asked & if you’re going to say something, do it. I find it rather perplexing my answer from an owner was of such value, actually...none.

On a neutral note for the review: the Mini 2’s curriculum is cheaper in cost and the kid does more in the water because the parent does the work and the instructor gives direction. I was told to have her do then Mini 3 since she seemed way advanced. So I did. It was the same curriculum but since there’s 1:2 ratio (instructor:student) one child waits and the other goes with the instructor. I guess it develops patience but it’s more expensive and half the actual amount of swim time, literally.

On a positive note for review: amazing facility, fairly priced, super clean, very warm water. The kid loves it.

Wow I'm so impressed what they've done in the facility ever since my daughter used to come here before the pandemic. Management apparently changed as well i was told & now it seems way better. The teachers actually teach the kids and it's smaller classes/way wider lanes which = more time for each kid swimming. Before there would be sometimes 5 kids in a small lane & it barely gave each enough time swimming. Highly recommend this place.

The staff has been great. They will make necessary adjustments to accommodate the needs of my daughters - from scheduling, assigning swim instructors and making a smooth transition whenever they level up. Lynn, Caitlin, and Luis' leadership shows how well they strive for great customer service and this is evident on how the staff conduct themselves professionally while making it all fun. Jessica has been exceptionally great in coaching and showed so much caring behavior that set up my 7 year old Amiya for pro-1. Yuliana encouraged and pushed her to give her best and that gave Amiya all the confidence to swim away. Catherine, Cristian, Geraldine and Jonathan are pillars of safety to the younger swimmers. Their smiles are contagious that makes Ava comfortable in the water. Overall, the staff in Norwalk Gold Fish Swim School are well trained, and they showcase world class professionalism.

I am extremely disappointed with the service I received at the GoldFish Swim School located on Main st in Norwalk. I do not want to drag out the story, but I also do not want to over simplify the fact that they completely ruined my child’s birthday. I get a call 3.5 hours before my sons birthday party telling me that they had to cancel due to a child “not following the rules.” Although their was absolutely nothing I could do at that point the manager Lynn was less than accommodating and certainly never had to deal with irate customers. I was extremely upset, as any mother of a 5 year old that has been waiting for his birthday party would be.

When I told Lynn that she had to find another way to accommodate us, even if that meant just utilizing the space and not the pool she denied my request and told me that I needed to just calm down. I had over 25 people that were due to show up and I had to figure something out. I had given them more than what was required as a deposit, considering you don’t have to pay the full amount until the day of the party. I asked Lynn for a refund and she refused to give me my refund. I told her that was unacceptable that over $500 was spent on this place, with $175 still needing to be owed to them, and she was not giving me my refund. I asked her when she would be available to speak in person for me to receive my refund because I had to get off the phone to figure out a plan B, and she took it as a threat and replied with I was not going to threaten her and that I was not “privy” to her schedule.

Mind you Lynn is the General Manager of this place! I asked her for her boss. She refused to give over the information. I asked her for a corporate office number, she stated there was no corporate. Fast forward, she tells me that she cannot show me my contract because it is shredded after it is sent to the corporate office. Yeah…..
This led to me having to get police involved and subsequently the owner was contacted 2 days later and we received a refund in the form of a check. The owner then states that the General manager did not know that she was authorize to process refunds. The owner offered me a complimentary swim, but that does not make up for my childs day. He was COMPLETELY heartbroken. His party was scheduled for 2PM which gave no other place enough notice to host a party. He received no gifts on his birthday, no cake ,because Goldfish were to take care of providing the cake, and I was out over $300 in decorations, thank you gifts, etc…

The place in general is BEAUTIFUL and I really wish this did not go the way that it did. Honestly if I would have received my refund the day of without the hassle of having to go down and get police involved I would be MORE than willing to go back. Hell I would even apologize to Lynn for being so angry. But this place does not deserve ANY of it. The people running the place have no sense of what it takes to run a business. All of the bottom line employees looked confused and sounded confused when I asked them questions regarding the refund policy. Lynn was so concerned with being right that she completely removed her customer service hat. TERRIBLE!

The manager was very rude and unaccommodating when my child graduated from a level and didn’t offer any classes or flexibility for the same day/time to accommodate us. They gave no forewarning or ability to be sensitive to the needs of working families. My husband and I tried for a week to communicate with someone about the class, thus showed up on the day of lesson in expecting that he would be able to return to the same class and have a slight leeway or transition to the next class/level, instead they filled his spot without informing us.....Furthermore, there has been multiple lessons without the same instructor, and lacks consistency. In addition, if you need to do makeups, it’s very difficult to find spots and only allows you a week in advanced to find a makeup spot. I don’t recommend this program if you want to deal with unaccommodating, insensitive, and inconsistent instructors.

The whole place is so cute. The front desk staff is really nice and helpful, there's plentiful, large changing "huts" (some with Bumbo chairs so you can set baby down safely), hair dryers, swim suit dryers, and thoughtful touches like extra diapers. The whole place is themed in a very fun Hawaiian-like way. My daughter is usually scared of new places, but she smiled and immediately ran up to the paintings on the walls and pointed out the fish. For parents who observe classes, the observation area is large and comfortable. They will come to get you at the end of class so you can interact with the teacher. You can also sit on the pool deck but it's really warm in there!

As for the lesson, mine was a parent/child class (my daughter is 2.5). The teacher was very friendly and bubbly. The activities were very gentle and gradual. I can't speak to the older classes, but they were using a lot of neat equipment I've never seen before. When you get out, there's a wall of showers for a quick rinse or there's a few bathrooms with showers. Overall, a wonderful experience.
