Swimming pool safety tips for children in Long Island & Nassau County NY

To keep kids safe at poolside, constant adult supervision is a must. Supervision doesn’t mean watching kids from afar, but an adult being available by the pool for easy reach of the kids. Commercial pools use lifeguard staffing services for this purpose, but parents or adults can also learn basic pool and lifeguard safety skills to keep their children safe at home pools.

Sturdy swimming pool fences block kids’ access to poolside without adult supervision. To make pool area safer for kids, discourage activities such as running or cycling by the poolside. Also keep all electronics away from the pool area. If the pool is shallow, do not allow kids to dive into it. You can also use pool alarms to add another layer of safety for your kids. These underwater alarms can alert you if someone accesses the pool when you are not around.
