The facility is top-notch, clean and inviting. Customer service is extremely responsive. Even with COVID I feel safe sending my kids to swim lessons. They really go above and beyond to ensure safety and are a model of high standards.

Goldfish has gone above and beyond by cleaning bathrooms and changing rooms between uses and scanning temps. They also keep class sizes small, limit guests, and spacing which is a huge plus. My daughter has loved attending their swim lessons. Highly recommend them.

While we love the warm water and fun atmosphere, it’s the staff that makes Goldfish so great.Now, during the pandemic we really appreciate the strict measures that Goldfish is maintaining. They are actually practicing their policy!

We’re so happy that we joined the Goldfish family. After joining, the confidence of my swimmer soared at 3.5 yeas old taking him into Pro 1 with Coach Rick and now Pro 2 with a Coach Rox at age 5.5! We love the facility, curriculum and social media community. Only ask - the front desk staff acknowledge us coming and going. Wicker Park did this very well - Roscoe needs to step up their greeting. game.

Goldfish has been a great experience for my son. He has come a long way in such a short period of time and I couldnt be happier with how he continues to learn.

My 6 year old daughter not only loves the class, but as far as I can tell she is excelling in it. Every day she asks, is today Goldfish day?, and when the day finally arrives she lets out a scream and runs to grab her swim suit. Not only has she begun to learn how to swim but her confidence has grown even out side of class. It is very exciting to watch. Thank you for the wonderful work. And a special thank to Matt, her coach, she loves him.„

Love this swim school. Ive watched my son blossom. He used to cry and fear the water after his first round of ISR swim lessons. He went from sobbing days 1-3 to now begging to go to swim classes. What a transformation. I not only look forward to him strengthening his survival skills, but watching him enjoy the playing in the pool. Couldnt be a happier, proud mama.

Our children, 6 and 5, love going to swimming class since they started their classes last fall. It has being very good specially for the 5 year old. She was really afraid of putting her head in the water, and, with a lot of patience, her teacher got her to do it at ease.

My family loves Goldfish! When my 3 year old refuses to let go of my leg, a team member sits with her until she gets in the water. Everyone is helpful and kind. High-5s all around!

My daughter and I really enjoyed our first class here today. Our teacher, Renee, was very friendly and welcoming. The facility was clean and there were plenty of amenities.It was suggested we arrive 10 minutes early but I recommend getting there 20-30 minutes early your first time. The place can be intimidating and no one offered to show us around.That being said, we are very excited to continue our lessons.

We recently celebrated my daughters 7th birthday here on (3-10-18) and to quote my daughter THE BEST PARTY EVER!!!.... Megan and her team were amazing. We arrived with our party and they took over from the moment we entered. They were such great host. There isnt a better feeling then being able to relax and enjoy your childs party. Thank you.

I have been bringing my 2 year old here for almost a year and she has gone from very scared of the water to jumping in if left unsupervised with reckless abandon. The facility is very kid friendly and the staff has always been helpful and friendly. Our instructor is hands on and is not afraid to get involved and grab kids out of their parents arms if they need a little extra attention. I cannot speak for the older kid classes, but my 2 year old definitely loves playing and being in the water now.

We’ve been here in Goldfish for maybe about a year now, my kids used to go to Foss but because my son is more advance & golf fish has swim team, I decided to move them here. Unfortunately, last Sunday, October 14 in the afternoon, I encountered a terrible experience with one of the instructors- my daughter was in for a make up class and when I handed her to JB- I’ve indicated to him that he can be more aggressive with her, he then said ok. Unfortunately as he was teaching her, when she expressed reluctance in swimming by herself he then gave up on her and he would skip her at times....my daughter wasn’t crying but this instructor is not patient and easily gave up...when I talked to him, he indicated he knows what he’s doing and that he’s been an instructor here for a while and that he also teaches the swim team and gave me an attitude and threw the paper that was in the plastic that he was holding while he turned his back on me!!!!! I’ve never met anyone so ARROGANT as he is. He thinks that because he’s a supervisor and he has tenure- he feels the right to give me an attitude (a paying customer here at Goldfish)he was mean and condescending!!! Thanks to both the supervisor on duty at that time and MH - the Mgr on duty who helped me with the situation. I HAVE BEEN WITH FOSS FOR 5 years and NEVER EXPERIENCED AN ENCOUNTER WITH ANY OF THE STAFF THERE!!! I HOPE THE OWNER WILL READ THIS COMMENT!

After reading the awesome reviews, I was very excited about finally getting to know the facility and meeting the people that make Goldfish Swim School – Roscoe Village so great! I have a friend whose kids go to another Goldfish Swim School location and they love it! As it is obvious my expectations were very high, unfortunately, my experience on August 31st 2017 evening was nothing as the reviews described. After a long day at work and just wanting to go home, I went to the facility because I was determined to enroll my little girls. I got there around 7 pm and I saw 3 young guys talking behind the counter. I said hello and expressed that I wanted to take a look at the facilities and get a tour. The guy responded to me: “yeah, you can take a look.” I was very shocked and disappointed, I just took a look around by myself and thought wow not only this is very bad customer service, but do they really let anyone just walk around a facility that is full of children? It is very unfortunate because I had made up my mind that I wanted to enroll them, so I just needed to check out the place and confirm the tuition info that I had already reviewed on the website. However, after yesterday’s incident, I’m still on the lookout for a swim school.

My family and I are very fortunate to cross paths with Goldfish Swim School! I have two of my boys enrolled and they have grown from scared to confident. My small one has been so proud of conquering his fear of being underwater that now he practices even in the bathtub! Goldfish is just wonderful!

My 2.5 year old took a swim session here & I didnt feel like he was actually learning to swim like the class description stated. They instructors were really nice & friendly but they would teach the same techniques to get the toddlers comfortable with the water & not necessarily teaching how to swim.
