Water Safety Starts with SAFE

With the recent warm weather and some heartbreaking drowning incidents making the news, we're sharing simple steps that can help keep children safe around water this summer.

Remember SAFE:

💙 S – Supervise children at all times around water
💙 A – After use, cover it
💙 F – Fence it, gate it or grill it
💙 E – Empty it or turn it over

Even small amounts of water can pose a risk. Paddling pools, buckets, water trays and garden ponds all need careful attention.

Worryingly, almost one in four parents believe it's okay to leave a child alone in water if they're wearing armbands or a swim vest. These can aid buoyancy, but they are not a substitute for close, constant supervision.

As we approach Drowning Prevention Week, we're sharing advice to help everyone enjoy the water safely this summer.

⛑️Frequently Asked Question no.2

“Do I have to perform CPR in the Parent & carer class?”

No - there is absolutely no pressure.

Our 2-hour Parent & Carer classes are not formal qualifications, so you are never forced to do anything you don’t want to do.

We always encourage everyone to have a go and learn the techniques because confidence comes from practice, but we completely understand that some people feel nervous at first.

The classes are friendly, supportive and relaxed - no one is put on the spot.

You’re coming to learn, ask questions and build confidence at your own pace ❤️

⛑️This week we are answering some frequently asked questions about our Parent & Carer classes.

👶 Frequently Asked Question no. 1👶

“Can I bring my baby along to the Parent & Carer class?”

Absolutely ❤️

If your baby is pre-crawling, they are more than welcome to come along to class with you.

We know how difficult it can be to arrange childcare, especially in those early months, so our classes are designed to feel relaxed, welcoming and baby-friendly.

Feed them, cuddle them, change them - no judgement here ☕🍼

Learning first aid with your little one beside you is often the easiest way for new parents to attend.

🔥 Burn Myth Busting 🔥

There’s still a lot of outdated advice shared when it comes to burns and scalds.

Here’s what NOT to do:
❌ Butter
❌ Toothpaste
❌ Ice
❌ Creams or ointments straight away

The BEST first aid for a burn?
✅ Cool running water for at least 20 minutes.

Then:
✔️ Remove jewellery/clothing near the burn (unless stuck)
✔️ Cover loosely with cling film
✔️ Seek medical advice if needed

Simple first aid can make an enormous difference to healing and scarring.

Knowing what to do matters ❤️

"What’s the simplest way to prevent your child from getting badly burned by hot liquid this summer? Keep your hot drinks in a sealed cup!

This time of year when we are on holiday, perhaps camping or travelling, it’s easy to forget or relax those simple baby safety habits that we might be used to doing at home.

In confined spaces such as hotel rooms, caravans or tents, it’s just as important to be vigilant to hazards and protect little ones.

So when you’re packing for your holidays over the next few weeks, make space for a cup with a lid in your suitcase and know you’ve ticked one less risk for your little one off your list!
