WATER SAFETY TIPS
CONSTANT SUPERVISION
It’s not a lack of supervision, but a LAPSE of supervision that can put a child at risk.
Adult supervision is key to keeping your children safe around water! Designate a water guardian to have eyes on the water and children at all times.
Be in the water with your child and always stay within arms reach.
Stay away from flotation devices!
These devices are designed to keep your child afloat in an emergency. They are not Coast Guard approved for use in a pool or as learn to swim devices. Do not use these for play time in the pool
If a child is missing, check the water first!
Create a routine for entering the pool area & water together.
