About Nemo's At Home Private Lessons

Nemo Swim School was founded in 2020

At NemoSwimSchool, we believe in making swimming fun, safe, and accessible for kids of all ages. Our goal is to teach children not only how to swim, but how to enjoy the water and build confidence that will last a lifetime.

Founder & Head of School

NemoSwimSchool was founded by Yolanda Jenkins, a passionate educator and experienced swim coach with over 15 years of teaching experience. Yolanda’s love for swimming began at a young age, and she is deeply committed to making swimming a positive experience for all children. 

Her vision is to create a school where safety, fun, and learning go hand in hand.

“Every child deserves the opportunity to feel confident in the water and to build skills that will last a lifetime.”
