er a tropical oasis. Brightly colored walls, tiki cabanas and surfboard benches surrounding our island-style hair drying station border our pool abuzz with the sounds of kids kicking and hands-on swimming instruction. At the pool deck, kids dive into an always tropical 90-degree pool. In a class size of no more than 4 children to 1 swim instructor, children master the skills they need to be safe and confident in the water. Beginning as early as 4 months, children progress through a series of perpetual swimming lessons, graduating to higher levels of difficulty as swimming skills are mastered. Goldfish also offers special events like birthday parties, family swim, accelerated Jump Start Clinics and our Recreational Swim Team, catered to swimmers who have completed the Goldfish Pro Level.

As a parent, you know it's never too early to start thinking about your baby's safety - and this includes water safety. 🧡
Our thoughtfully designed baby swim lesson program begins at 4 months of age. Using a sensory approach, our curriculum begins teaching your baby the foundational skills they need for water safety while creating a positive experience. ✨
We have SO many *finspiring* women and girls in our Goldfish Swim School community, and in honor of we wanted to give them a shout-out! 🧡

Starting with our co-founder and visionary, Jenny McCuiston, to the little fish making waves in their swim lessons. To all of the many leaders, instructors, and team members who are athletes - today we Celebrate you!
All of you are role models, mentors, friends, and more - you never know who you're encouraging - in and out of the pool.
Happy National Girls and Women in Sports Day!! 🌟

A new month means a new Goldfish Swim School monthly celebration, and this month we're celebrating Love & Friendship! 🥰
We weave these monthly celebrations into every aspect of the swim lesson experience for even more creativity and imagination. Not just because it's fun, but because we know that all these "little" things help kids learn better and make the experience so much more than the everyday. 🧡
Which Bubbles' buddy is your favorite celebration character this month?

The first month of a new year is often a time when we think about dreams and goals for the year to come - that includes kiddos! 💫
Having big dreams, setting goals, and learning the skills to move toward them are all wonderful things that shouldn't be exclusive to adults. So we want to know - what's one goal or dream your kiddo wants to see come true this year? 🤗

As parents, there's an indescribable joy in those heartwarming "proud parent" (and "proud kiddo") moments. Just the mention of those phrases probably brought to mind some sweet memories. 🥹
The pure delight we experience as we witness our children grow, learn, take on challenges, and exhibit immense courage is truly unparalleled. ✨
These are golden moments, for us and them. The fact that we get to be a part of so many of these moments is something we'll never take for granted - here, it's more than just swim lessons. 🧡
One of the reasons why our curriculum provides repeated proven results for swimmers is because we made progressions a key part of our swim lesson curriculum. Did you know that we even use progressions in our Mini Lessons (our swim lessons designed specifically for babies and toddlers)? 💫
These progressions allow instructors to teach to the individual, and meet each child exactly where they are to help them work on specific skills and advance through our swim lesson levels!

We love this reminder from @doctormollyoshea to think about getting CPR trained or certified!
What better way to celebrate #hearthealthmonth than by making sure you know what to do in a CPR-required emergency? 🧡 Asking if your childcare providers are CPR-trained or certified is also a great thing to make note of!
What other heart healthy things does your family do to prioritize their health?

We know that kids learn from observing their fellow students during swim lessons (just one reason why we love small group lessons!) — but how about this sweet response? 🥹🥹
Sometimes kiddos give us the best answers that we might not have even thought of ourselves. 🧡 So while we know that they’re learning when they’re watching, waiting for their turn to practice a skill, seeing that other kiddo swim might just be helping give your kiddo the confidence they need to feel brave! 🤗

Dr. Molly’s (non-tech) Holiday Gift Guide for Kids! ✨
💫 Growing Imagination: Puppets and costumes are great for helping kids create their own stories and learn how to speak up in front of others. Often children work out their emotional challenges and practice new emotional skills through play. For all these reasons PLAYFUL MINDS POP UP PUPPET THEATER is my choice in this category @playful_minds
🚜 Play like Real Life: Whether kids are playing with construction vehicles or dolls, they love to pretend to be grownups. One of the more unique gifts that allows kids to have fun in this way is Melissa and Doug’s @melissaanddougtoys Vending Machine Play Set. So fun!
🟦 Creating by Building: Legos are an amazing go to gift. Another option are magnetic tiles. These cool tiles connect with magnets, come in different shapes, colors and sizes and can be made into specific designs or freely formed into child created designs.
🧠 STEM Ideas: Two great gift ideas for science and tech-oriented kids are Snap Circuits Jr. Select where kids can build over 130 electronic projects and Dissect It + where future doctors and vets can learn about how reptile bodies work.
🎷 Music builds brain connections unlike anything else. Making music is great fun for kids. Quercetti’s SaxoFlute Super is a great way to introduce music making. Kids can take assemble the toy saxophone in a variety of ways so the sound will be different every time!
🎨 Creative Arts: Beyond crayons and coloring books, Hape’s Colour Mix Painting. Squishmallows Crochet Kit, and Do It Yourself Magic Wand Kit are great choices!
🧡 Swim lessons are a great gift and are a MUST for every child this holiday season! Swim lessons are fun, grow confidence, and teach lifesaving skills. Be sure to add Goldfish Swim Lessons to your list and ask your local Goldfish about Holiday Packages!

Two more tips from @doctormollyoshea ✨
Stress Busting Tip 2 (to tackle overwhelm): Take 1 thing off your ‘must do’ list. Every parent creates lists that feel like ‘must dos’ when in reality they aren’t. You don’t have to attend EVERY game. You don’t have to drive to EVERY practice (set up a carpool or let a friend/grandparent drive). You don’t HAVE to make your child’s school treat for their birthday (buying a store-bought treat is just as fun for the kids).
Stress Busting Tip 3 (to tackle isolation): Create a parent posse at work or through school. Set up a text group or coffee club and use it as a place to share primarily ‘parenting fails’ and hard moments. Building comradery around the hard times will creates a safe space and a way to normalize ‘real life’ in ways that social media doesn’t.
We always remind ourselves to be gentle with our kiddos, be gentle with you too — you’re doing great. 🧡
