We had our first swim lesson today with both of my kids, and it was a great experience! Maria was patient, friendly, and made my children feel comfortable in the water right away. The lesson was well organized, engaging, and age-appropriate for my 4 and 2 year old! My kids had so much fun and my daughter already looking forward to the next class. We’re excited to continue our lessons and highly recommend her!

Maria has been helping my 4 year old in the water and he’s gone from not wanting to put his face in to going to the bottom to get toys with her in a matter of three classes. She’s so great and we’re excited to continue with her!

She is the best swimming teacher I have found! She treats my daughter with so much kindness and patience. Her voice is very calm and reassuring, which makes my daughter feel comfortable and confident in the water. I’m so happy we found her and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a wonderful swimming instructor! ❤️🏊‍♀️

Maria was amazing! Patient and calm. My two boys responded really well to her, and I love how encouraging she was, while also respecting their boundaries. She made it fun “rescuing” toys from the water. 100% recommend. She is very ND friendly and great with young kids. Intuition is something you can’t teach.

We had our first lesson with Maria today! Her calm and inviting energy helped my son feel comfortable with her right away. He was so brave during the lesson due to the confidence she instilled in him. We look forward to continuing lessons with Maria! 😊

About Maria B.

I'm a mom of two, a lifelong water lover, and I've been teaching swimming since 2010. Over the past 16 years, I've helped hundreds of children take their first kicks, conquer their fears, and celebrate their swimming successes. My specialty is working with toddlers and young children. I also teach parents and adults to swim as well!

Teaching philosophy

I bring patience, enthusiasm, and a playful approach that helps little swimmers feel safe while building strong water skills. I understand both the instructor perspective and the parent perspective, which allows me to create lessons that are fun, effective, and tailored to each child.

A typical first lesson

Every swimmer learns at their own pace. We'll work side by side on breath work, bubbles, floating, kicking, movement, and water confidence using fun activities and games. My goal is to create a safe, encouraging environment where every swimmer can succeed and enjoy the water.
