Stop looking now - CeeCee is the best! Our 4 year-old daughter has been in lessons with CeeCee for over two years, and our 2-year old son has been with CeeCee for over 1 year. CeeCee has a magical way of connecting with young kids and is able to playfully balance fun in the pool with serious lessons in safety and swim basics. She's always cool and calm, even when the toddler meltdowns hit! She's very quick to communicate and flexible when schedules change, and our kids love her.

We are grateful for the incredible work Cee Cee has done over the past year in teaching our 4-year-old not only how to swim, but also the importance of water safety. Her calm, patient, and encouraging approach made our son feel completely comfortable and confident around the pool. We highly recommend her to any family looking for a caring and skilled swim instructor.

Swimming was always something I wanted to feel confident doing, but I never quite got the hang of it especially when it came to breathing and technique. I would get frustrated, tense up, and feel completely out of rhythm in the water. That all changed when I started working with Courtney. From the very first lesson, she created an environment that felt safe, encouraging, and genuinely supportive. She broke things down in a way that finally made sense to me, especially when it came to coordinating my breathing with my strokes. Her patience never ran out, and she always knew the right cue or visual to help something click. What stood out most was her passion, not just for swimming, but for helping people feel good in the water. She celebrated my small wins and made sure I never felt discouraged. Thanks to her, I now have a solid foundation, better breathing, and a whole new level of confidence in the pool. I’m so grateful for her guidance and heart. If you’re looking for someone who truly cares about your progress and knows how to get you there, Courtney is it.

We’ve had a year and a half of lessons with CeeCee starting when my son was 1.5 and it’s been a great experience. The teaching is calm, fun, and effective, and CeeCee connects so well with him. Communication and scheduling is easy, and our son looks forward to swimming with CeeCee every week!
