Goldfish Swim School - Fitchburg is an indoor children’s swim school with a warm, 90-degree, shiver-free pool and a tropical themed space. The facility includes air-conditioned viewing galleries with free Wi-Fi and convenient access to snacks and swim gear. A swimsuit and towel are all that is needed, with goggles optional.
The program’s mission states that “Swim Lessons Save Lives. Enroll today for a safer tomorrow,” and describes a process that is “all about progress.” Goldfish Swim School uses a play-based philosophy called The Science of SwimPlay® that combines guided play with a safe, supportive environment to teach essential water safety skills while building confidence in the water. The mission also states that the top priority is to instill discipline, trust, athleticism, and focus through dynamic swim lessons.
All lifeguards receive training in the International Lifeguard Training Program™ developed by Jeff Ellis and Associates and receive regular, ongoing training from a certified lifeguard instructor. Goldfish Swim School has been awarded best swim school 10 years running. The first Goldfish Swim School opened in 2006, and the co-founders are Jenny McCuiston and Chris McCuiston.
The leadership and deck team at Goldfish Swim School - Fitchburg includes General Manager Eugenia Walters; managers Lee, Emma, and Catalina; manager support staff Halie and Marie; and multiple deck supervisors and deck assistants, including Ian, Anabel, Carmella, CC, Eduardo, Maija, Cadence, Rebecca, Jason, Sam, Chloe, Elaina, and Danica. Families from Fitchburg, Madison, and Sun Prairie use this location for swim lessons.
Parent feedback includes comments that the facility has “super friendly staff” who made a child feel “extremely welcomed and comfortable,” and that children “really enjoyed swimming in the pool.” One parent described having “such a great experience with the swim lessons” for a 6-year-old, and another mentioned being excited about the swim school and noted the enthusiasm of a staff member in training.
