Our Story

"Our purpose is saving lives through drowning prevention while developing confident, safe and happy swimmers."
A message from our founder, Lauren.
We’ve been proudly operating for over 10 years and have now expanded to 2 locations. I started SwimAway after the birth of my first son, driven by a deeply personal motivation: the real and tragic risk of drowning for children under five.
My passion for preventing avoidable drowning-related deaths drove me to create a learn to swim program that was aimed at improving children’s survival skills in the water. I knew that there was no other program out there that focused on learning how to survive rather than learning how to have the perfect swim technique – so with passion and a fantastic team around me, we’ve created a program that can be implemented and taught to infants as young as three months old.
Let us help you protect your children, with swimming lessons!
