Great experience with Lowcountry Swim School! Lucy has been great with our daughter and makes learning a new skill both comfortable and enjoyable! You can tell all the teachers here genuinely care about what they do and take the time to make sure the kids are learning along the way. We’re excited to see her continue learning and retaining the skills she’s being taught each week. Highly recommend!

Erin is absolutely wonderful! I love how loving, patient, and caring she is with my son. She always takes the time to explain things to me and even suggests activities we can practice at home to continue reinforcing what he learns during his lessons. She also encourages me to practice with him during class, showing me what to do and guiding me on how to improve. I truly appreciate how involved she makes me feel in his progress. But best of all, my little boy absolutely loves her! You can tell she genuinely loves what she does, and we are so grateful to have her as his swim instructor.

Response from the owner · a week ago

Maria, thank you for sharing this wonderful feedback. We are so pleased Erin’s patient, caring approach and at-home suggestions have helped you feel involved and that your son loves his lessons. We will pass your kind words along to her. We look forward to supporting his continued progress.

This was our 3rd year with Ms. Wendy and 1st year with Ms. Bella. We continue to have the best experience at Lowcountry Swim School and exactly why we keep coming back every spring/summer! Our toddler started with LSS at 11months and the techniques, patience, and care has been wonderful. We love how dedicated the staff and Ms. Wendy have been throughout the years. Thank you for all that you do! Xander loves swimming! -The Bells
