We love Carlile Lane Cove West! Been going since our little one was 5 months he’s now 20 months. Clare is our teacher and she is amazing. ????

We switched from another franchise a few months ago and really enjoy this location. The facilities are much bigger with several change rooms. It does get very crowded on the weekends so kids might not get as much attention from the instructors as they would on a weekday but we do appreciate the “monitor” staff who walk throughout the centre and help out where they can to discuss new approaches or your kids progress. Special call-out to Hamish and Lulu 🙂

Excellent facility for kids to learn. My son has been to a few different swim schools before but he has progressed at Carlile the most. Professional teachers and staff.

My son today had is first lesson and he loved it! All the staff and instructors are great! Definitely recommend it.

We have been attending Carlile Swimming in Ryde since July this year with our 4 and 6 year old, both are having a great time while learning the highly valuable skill of swimming. We have been to a couple of other places over the years, but I have to say this is the best one by far. So if you have a child that needs to learn how to swim I would highly recommend

Best in the business. My 4 children swam here for 8-9 years. We only left due to not being able to get lessons at a time that suited when our youngest was starting primary school in 2021. We have recently left the other swim school for various reasons. Let me say that its good to be "home" and glad to be a Carlile family once again!

I have been attending Tuesday squads for about 2 years now and I absolutely love it the coaches are amazing shout out to Will and Gabe and former coach Jack who have supported and encouraged me through out my time there. They are amazing coaches and have amazing coaching methods. I would recommend Carlile Norwest to anyone looking for great swimming lessons and squads for kids or teens. 10/10

We have been using the facilities for all our kids from the last 9 years, this place is getting better by the day. Great location with awesome facilities; trainers are just at the next level with lots of patience. I would recommend this place to anyone looking for a decent swim school. Room for improvement- shower facilities

This is a very good swimming school, my son has been there for several years. The teachers are very friendly and helpful, the expectations of the students at a very good level, and good pool maintenance. There are 2 pools, with several levels in each. The first is for small children, about 4-8. The other for 9-16. The maximum level a student can reach is a shark, equivalent to squads in other swimming schools.

Such a great place to learn swimming. Clean and very warm with beautiful team that makes this CARLILE CHERRYBROOK special. The teachers are absolutely Fantastic- mentioning just a few- Samantha, Liz, Lachlan. The support team is always ready to help. Big THANK YOU to NICK, SANDRA, LESLEY who always welcome you with a smile and are always ready to help! THANK YOU AGAIN.

My kids love going to their swimming classes, the teachers are great. They are friendly and try to put kids in classes at the same time… very considerate of parents and they want to help. I’m glad we changed swimming school and are now going to Carlile

Great place for kids to learn swimming. Amazing staff who pays great attention to your child in their early years of swimming lessons. School holidays are even better as kids get intensive learning and practice (whenever possible). Just one observation that when the class is full, 6 or 7 kids seems a bit crowded. 5 kids max would be ideal. Overall two thumbs up!
