Swimming Pool Kids Safety Tips

As the weather starts to heat up, and we head back to swimming pools for the summer, there are safety precautions we need to take. Many families look to purchase swimming pools or flock to open community pools for the season. With that increased time in the pool comes the need to be aware and observe some important swimming pool kids safety tips.

Today I’m sharing some pool safety tips that will help you stay safe and keep your kids from getting into the swimming pool without supervision. Below you’ll find a list of the best safety tips for pools so that you can enjoy your pool in a safe and fun way with your family.

Never Leave Child Unattended

Children shouldn’t be left unattended in or around the swimming pool. There should always be an adult supervising kids when they are around the water. Designated a person to keep watch of the children whenever they’re using the swimming pool at home or in a community setting. Kids get excited about being in the water and often have no fear of jumping in, even if they don’t know how to swim.

Teach Children to Swim

The best swimming pool kids safety tip is to make sure you teach your children how to swim, early. The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends children start learning how to swim at age 4. At minimum you should teach them water survival skills. But it is a great ideas to teach them as early as possible. You can enroll your child in swimming classes or teach them in your swimming pool at home.

Swimming Pool Kids Safety Tips

Discuss Pool Drains

As the designated adult supervisor, make sure to check all swimming pool drains for cracks or missing parts. Young children can get their limbs stuck in open or broken drains. Drains that have the suction to help keep the pool water clean can also suck in your child’s hair so be sure to educate your kids about the pool drains and to stay clear of those areas in the swimming pool.

Consider a CPR Course

Parents everywhere should consider taking a CPR course to make sure they’re prepared in case of an emergency. You can take a CPR certification course through Red Cross and continue to take courses to keep this certification up to date.

Install a Fence or Pool Enclosure

Lastly, when it comes to swimming pool kids safety tips there should be some sort of barrier, alarm, or fence around all swimming pools. The enclosure should be at least 4 feet tall on all sides. Make sure your kids cannot climb it and keep it locked when not in use.

When it comes to swimming pool kids safety tips, it’s best to do what it take to keep your family safe this summer. Make sure you take all precautions to complete various safety measures based on how old your kids are and what their swimming capabilities are. I hope that this list will help your family enjoy a safe swimming season.

First off, forget them people! Respectfully… Bu First off, forget them people! Respectfully…

But, I get it!  Most times we lack confidence worrying about other people’s opinion on this or that, but… 

- Stop trying to prove people wrong and prove yourself right! This is about you. You overcoming your fears. You finding the audacity to be great. You pursuing YOUR best life.

- Surround yourself with people that pour into you. Having the right support system is essential. It helps you ignore the noise around you. Join an online group, meetup with positive people local to you.

- Figure out the area you lack confidence in and build yourself up in that area.

- Feel the fear and do it anyway! You gotta just push through. Keep working. Keep showing up. Keep building.

Save this post and reference it when you feel self doubt creeping in.

It’s Monday and I’m prepared to have a product It’s Monday and I’m prepared to have a productive week! 

Here are a few things I do to make sure the business and the babies are setup for success:

- Write down everything I need to get done this week on Sunday. I literally do a brain dump of all the things.

- Then I prioritize these things from most important to least! …because let’s be real I wanna do everything but there’s only so much time in the day 😂 

- Then I schedule the first 3 things in my planner for Monday. I like to see it here and put in Google calendar.

- I plan, shop, and prep all my meals for the week on Sunday too. Because who got time for “What y’all wanna eat?” everyday lol 

- Lastly I’m trying to make room for IG this week because that hasn’t been a priority. But @planoly is coming in clutch for me.

So I’m implementing the strategy: if you fail to plan, you plan to fail! And I’m planning to get it done this week!!!

Share this with an entrepreneur that could use it!
