This is not ok 💔

Florida has now lost 51 children to drownings this year, and each number represents a child, a family, and a tragedy that changes lives forever.

The heartbreaking reality is that many of these incidents are preventable. We must continue to build and strengthen the layers of protection that help keep children safe around water:

Constant, undistracted supervision
Pool fences with self-latching gates
Doors and windows locked and alarmed at all times
Quality Self-Rescue swim lessons
Designated Water Watchers
Remove pet doors
Dress them in bright clothing
Learning CPR

We are also seeing a growing number of drownings occur at vacation homes and short-term rentals, where families may be unfamiliar with the property and safety barriers may not be in place. Water safety must travel with us wherever we go.

As summer continues, please take a moment to review your layers of protection. Drowning can happen quickly and quietly, but together we can help prevent these tragedies.

When someone asks what your 3-year-old learned in swim lessons this summer… 👀💦

You want the answer to be THIS. 👏

✔️ Jumping in independently
✔️ Swimming with the face in the water
✔️ Rolling to float and breathe
✔️ Swim → Float → Swim problem solving
✔️ Real confidence built through real skills

Not just water play.
Not just bubbles and floaties.
Real independence. 💙

Congrats to a few of our Swim Safe Now® grads practicing their skills in clothes! 💦👏

Swimming in clothes feels VERY different than swimming in a swimsuit and swim diaper. Wet clothing adds weight, changes movement, and can make floating and swimming more challenging. This is why we like our students to have opportunities to practice and build confidence in different types of clothing once their core skills are mastered.

Whether it’s an infant practicing rollback-to-float skills or an older child working through swim-float-swim sequences, these real-world practice sessions help build confidence, competence, and safer problem-solving in the water 💙

Because real safety means being prepared for more than perfect pool conditions.
