Sea Star Aquatics LLC — Attraction in Bellevue

If you are looking for a swimming coach/team who not only excels in teaching swimming skills, but providing genuine care and tremendous support in kids' social communication, emotional regulation, sensory processing, and motor planning, etc., Stacy and her Sea Star is THE RIGHT place, no need to look further, speaking from a Mom to an autistic girl.

We started working with Stacy and her team during Pandemic when everything was closed and we were so isolated and desperate. My daughter is autistic but she loves water as water provides such an amazing sensory input. We were so lucky to find Stacy and she has been incredibly kind, generous, loving, compassionate and supportive. She is extremely experienced and knowledgeable in working with kids, autistic or otherwise. She understands my daughter's needs and goes all the way to support and help her.

I highly recommend Sea Star Aquatics. Stacy and her team are professional, compassionate, and fun. My 7 year old son has been attending adaptive swim with Stacy for two years. Although he had no previous swim experience, he has become comfortable in the water and has learned many skills. Her lessons are well structured and she adapts to her students abilities. Because of his experience with Stacy, my son is passionate about swimming and he has found a sense of community. I see the therapeutics benefits of swimming both in and out of the pool. Sea Star Aquatics provides belonging, structure, and life skills for my son. He loves it!...
