About This Swim School
The Brampton facility was purpose-built for Making Waves in 2010. It was custom designed specifically for teaching swimming lessons! Your family will enjoy access to our large family change rooms and spacious, modern viewing area complete with a handy kids play space.
Some other features of our Brampton location are wide walk-in steps for small children, a large parking lot and a state of the art UV water sanitation system! The pool is also kept at a warm 90 degrees to keep your little ones warm while they learn! Please stop by during business hours for a tour and more information!

I am thrilled to be joining Making Waves and to help provide you and your kiddos an amazing experience with their ‘learn to swim’ journey. I’ve been in the Aquatics and Hospitality industry for almost 2 decades and look forward to sharing my knowledge and experience with the team. My passion lies with the growth and development of swimmers and coaches while creating a fun and friendly environment for all. I love spending time with family and friends and going on hikes with my 2 lovely dogs.

Hello, you can call me Nat! I love to travel as I have visited Colombia, Mexico and New York!! One day I hope to visit Germany. When i’m not at the pool, you can catch me going to the movies, out to dinner or shopping! My favourite thing about Making Waves is the friendly staff I get to work with everyday. Even though I love teaching children how to swim, I am striving to become a school teacher too! Come visit me at the pool!

Learning to swim has so many benefits. Not only does swimming build motor skills, provide numerous health benefits, and improve cognitive function, but it can also reduce your likelihood of drowning by up to 88% in children ages 1 to 4––which makes it a life saving skill. But despite a parent’s desire for their children to learn to swim, a lot of parents wonder what age is appropriate for them to start.
