Great School Little Otter is a great place to learn to swim. Staff and managers go out of their way to offer quality service. They really care about their little swimmers.
Absolutely Wonderful Swim School - all around We have been at Little Otters for almost a year. It was a wait to get in...and so worth it! My daughter is just turning 2 and she can float on her back, swim about 6 feet, pick up sinkies, blow bubbles and crawl out of the pool! And she LOVES it. We drive 30+ minutes each way for a 30 minute class...that is how great it is!!
Horrible, just Horrible I actually got kicked out of Little Otters!! I am in utter shock right now and my mouth is hanging open. For us, Little Otters has been going downhill in the past year. For one, they have increased their teacher student ratio 4:1 for the 3 year olds class beginner class, which used to be 3:1. They said with all the new enrollments, they felt it was time to do that. Yeah, way to make a buck Safety vs. Money. Guess which they chose? I expressed my concerns about this and they basically said, "Too bad." ... read more
Best Kept Secret in Charlotte!! We love Otter School! 2 of our 3 kids have learned to swim here and our newborn is next. We have been going Little Otter School for 4 years now, and we consider it to be a critical part of our children's learning. On a planet that is 3/4 water -- the earlier your children swim the better! They have a great system to train their instructors and over the years we have been impressed with how the owners have infused their approach into their staff.
Wonderful Swim Scool for Kids My child has attended this swim school since they opened and has learned so much during that time. She has had the same teacher the entire time. Fees are a bit pricey, but the ratio of child to teacher is smaller than other schools I checked on. Classes are only 30 minutes long, and that is not nearly long enough for children to get the amount of personalized instruction that they need. With the maximum of 4 children in a class, that gives each child a maximum of a little over 7 minutes of indiv... read more
Happy little water bug! I've been swimming with Little Otter Swim School from almost the time that they've opened. No other aquatics center has been able to offer not only the skills but also the enviroment. My children ask to go to swimming! They love their instuctors! I've been able to watch my oldest become a strong confindent swimmer. And when it come to my youngest I've never been so pleased. Not only that he's learning helpful skills but he's having a blast and I'm able to share this class with him. The front desk has ... read more
Excellent swim school! We love Little Otter! The strides my daughter has made in 2 months are amazing. She went from not wanting to put her head in, to blowing bubbles for ~10 seconds and swimming ~5ft. I expected them to be expensive, but they are actually slightly less than our YMCA lessons (program member rate). We have a smaller class than at the Y (there are 2 in my daughter's class), the facilities are nicer and it's easier to watch her. Unlike other reviewers, I feel she gets the full instruction time - they always st... read more
A big hit for us! This is a really good swim school. We have had experiences at other schools and this one is by far the best! The lessons are well structured and fun. The baby class was a big hit. My child learned how to turn and grab the wall when he falls in and can swim underwater for 7 seconds! Their prices are about the same as others, maybe slightly higher, but well worth it. I would recommend them for sure!
The staff is wonderful and the programs they offer are very good. Little Otter is a great place for beginners and intermediate swimmers.
