Come and Learn to
Love to Swim

My son began taking lessons at Sunny Days Swim School when he was six months old. He has been a regular student every summer since 2014.

Shunda’s style of teaching is unique because she instructs from a place of genuine love and enthusiasm. She has a heart for how the water positively impacts our mind, body, and soul.

Every child’s lesson is special and personalized to match both their swimming level and personality.

My son, who was ten at the time, wrote about his experience in one of his weekly papers for school. His quote, “Consequently, I am adept at swimming and become hyper when I hear the word pool. Since my favorite part about her lessons is throwing toys into the deep end, I learned how to hold my breath for a long time. Furthermore, I love to both swim toward the deep end of the pool and looking up. The sight isfascinating. For anyone who wants to learn how to swim, I recommend Sunny Days Swim School!”

“We can’t say enough wonderful things about  Mrs. Shunda. She has been teaching our son since 2018 and our daughter since 2023. Mrs. Shunda is incredibly patient, professional, and truly passionate about teaching. We feel so lucky to have found such a skilled and caring instructor. Highly recommended!”

“I highly recommend Sunny days swim school! My daughter(infant 6 months), and I both have taken lessons with Ms.Shunda.

Ms.Shunda is attentive and extremely skillful. It was amazing to watch my daughter connect with Ms.Shunda and make progress from the fear of being in the water to the ability to float independently on her back. I love that Ms.Shunda was able to have patience and grace with me as an adult trying to learn how to swim. She was able to push me beyond my limits. We look forward to returning to the next season!“

“My granddaughter went to Sunny Days swim school last summer (2024). She was 4 and had no water exposure before. Ms Shunda was amazing at getting her trust. She did such a wonderful job with Esme’. She got her comfortable in the water and confident thanks to Ms Shunda. We are going again this summer. It’s the best swim experience for any age.”

“Wonderful is not enough to say. My grandson was 9 months old when he learned to swim with confidence and safety along with fun. My granddaughter, who was very afraid, is swimming and in the pool as often as possible.  Shunda teaches with love and kindness. I thank her for teaching them skills and water safety.”

“We are parents who are careful about who we choose to work with our child, so we often find it difficult to find places that fit our preferences. We recognize swimming as an essential life skill, in addition to being great exercise and fun. We were able to find a place that gives safety, expertise, kindness, patience, and an enjoyable experience.

Sunny Days Swim School has become a part of our summer routine that we plan to continue for the next few years. Typically, in most businesses, the biggest compliment is repeat business or referral. We have done both. We have referred families with confidence to Sunny Days because Shunda Wilkin, the owner/operator, is a loving, caring, expert instructor.

A former lifeguard/lifeguard instructor and currently certified as an American Red Cross Water Safety Instructor (WSI). More importantly, she’s working within her purpose. No matter what level of swimmer your child may be, SDSS is a great place to learn/practice.”

“We couldn’t be happier with our experience at Sunny Days Swim School! The instructors are incredibly patient, encouraging, and skilled at helping swimmers of all ages feel confident in the water. The lessons are fun, safe, and very well organized. We’re so grateful to the entire team for creating such a positive and supportive environment. Sunny Days truly lives up to its name — it’s been a bright spot in our family’s routine!”

“Sunny Days Swim School has been a blessing for our family! Shunda is amazing with kids, so patient, and an excellent swim instructor! My son began lessons with Shunda at age 3 and has continued to advance each year to mastering different stroke techniques and diving at age 11.”

“My daughter was absolutely terrified of swimming and incredibly shy around new people. From the moment we arrived, Shunda made her feel seen, safe, and genuinely welcomed. She meets each of her students exactly where they are, with patience and grace. By the end of our time together, my daughter had gained essential swimming survival skills that she didn’t have before, and I walked away with a better understanding of how to support her swimming journey at home. Shunda’s gift goes far beyond teaching—she builds confidence, connection, and capability.”
