Not all “swimmers” are created equal.

Just because a guest says their child can swim doesn't mean they are ready for your pool's deep end. A quick, 30-second swim test at the start of the party saves lives.

Not sure you want to be the "strict" host? No worries, send us a DM and we’ll make sure that swim tests happen.

“My child is wearing floaties, so they’re safe!” is a common misconception that can lead to children being left unsupervised around water.

Water wings, pool noodles, and other flotation toys are NOT life-saving devices. They can slip off unexpectedly or give inexperienced swimmers the confidence to venture into deeper water before they're ready. A properly fitted life jacket is the safest flotation device and should always be available for any aquatic activity, whether you're at the pool, beach, or lake.

Young children should always remain within arm’s reach of a parent or guardian, and no child should ever be left unsupervised in or around the water.

If you're looking to improve your own swimming skills, help your child become a stronger swimmer, or hire a lifeguard for added peace of mind and water safety guidance, send us a DM!

At parties, adults often assume someone else has eyes on the pool. We recommend the "Water Watcher" card - one adult wears a lanyard and does nothing but watch the water for 15 minutes, then passes it off.

Of course, having one of our certified lifeguards on duty is always the safest option. But when that’s not possible, a clear, dedicated Water Watcher can make all the difference.

Did you know drowning rarely sounds like it does in the movies?

There is usually no screaming. It’s quiet and quick. When kids are playing at a party, the noise of the crowd can mask the silence of someone in trouble.

Do you know what to look for?
