Keep Watch at Public Pools
0-5 years old and non-swimmers | Stay within arms’ reach
6 -10 years old and weak swimmers | Be close, be prepared & maintain constant visual contact
11-14 years old | Maintain visual contact
Active supervision at public pools consists of four key elements:
Be Prepared: Ensure you have everything you need before getting into the water, such as towels and dry clothes.
Be Close: Always be within arms’ reach of your child.
All of Your Attention: Focus all of your attention on your child and get into the pool and talk and play with them.
All of the Time: You should never leave your child alone in the water, nor should they be left in the care of an older child or with the assumption that your responsibility diminishes due to the presence of lifeguards.
