After taking a few months off, our daughter was very unsure about the water when we started lessons again in January. Harriet was such an excellent teacher, super patient with her, and always adapting or suggesting different techniques to keep her comfortable and happy in the pool &#8211; now she absolutely loves it. They are very safety focused as part of their lessons, teaching the children how to get out of the pool safely, how to find the wall, which was one of the reasons I chose Cindy\u2019s over other swim schools.<\/span>\u201d &#8211;
