Aqua-Tots was founded in 1991 in Scottsdale, Arizona by Ron and Jane Sciarro. The two always had a love for children and dreamed about running their own business. So, when Ron and Jane identified very few quality swim programs for parents to enroll their children in, they started their own learn-to-swim business. The two taught classes to families seasonally from March through October. Over the next few years, the founders designed and developed a comprehensive training curriculum that focused on meeting the needs of two important people: the child and the parent.
Today, Aqua-Tots Swim Schools have franchises across the world. Aiming to provide families with life-saving swimming instruction, Aqua-Tots has revolutionized the swim-school industry through their attention to details, strategic planning, and focus on being the very best.
