Why Water Safety Is Important
Learning how to swim in Port Macquarie-Hastings is about more than backstrokes and blowing bubbles. It’s an invaluable life skill for infants — and a great way to have some fun! Instilling fundamental swimming skills during private baby swimming lessons is extremely important for babies and toddlers in particular. We’ve gathered a few important facts about water safety that underscore its importance:
- Drowning is the third-leading cause of unintentional death worldwide, accounting for 7% of all injury-related deaths.
- There are an estimated 372,000 annual drowning deaths worldwide.
- Global estimates may significantly underestimate the actual public health problem related to drowning.
- Children, males and individuals with increased access to water are most at risk of drowning. - World Health Organization (WHO), 2014
Water safety is an important matter in any home, especially if you have a toddler or a young child. Swimming pools are fun to play in, but they can also be deadly. Instances of child drownings are a leading cause of death for children 14 and under. According to the Red Cross, more than 1 in 5 water fatalities is a child aged 1 to 4.
At AquaMobile, we hold your child’s water safety in high regard, thanks to our private baby swimming lessons. Here are AquaMobile Swim School’s drowning prevention tips for parents and carers to ensure your children stay safe in and around your home swimming pool in Port Macquarie-Hastings.
Ten Ways To Promote Water Safety and Prevent Your Child From Drowning in Port Macquarie-Hastings
1. Actively supervise your child while they swim.
Always watch your infant or toddler closely when they swim in the water! There is no substitute for active parent or guardian supervision. Make sure one adult is completely focused on watching all children in the pool at all times. It’s not enough to have 20 distracted adults talking to each other around the pool – one must be actively supervising the children in case of emergency. In 69% of drownings, the child was being supervised by one or both of the parents.2. Know CPR and First-Aid.
Although this may seem like an obvious step, many people, even experienced swimmers, underestimate the need for knowledge of CPR and First Aid. Be sure you are up to date on your First Aid knowledge and certifications so you can take charge in case an emergency situation arises. Effective CPR can double a child’s chances of survival. Due to popular demand, AquaMobile offers water safety and first aid courses in addition to our regular at home swimming lessons for babies in Port Macquarie-Hastings.3. Make sure the supervising adult knows how to swim.
The supervising adult should know how to swim and know basic CPR and First-Aid Training in case of a swimming emergency. During the time it takes for the ambulance to arrive, CPR training could save a life.4. Make sure your children know how to swim.
Children aged 1-4 with formal private baby swimming lessons have up to 88% less of a chance of drowning. Children can learn to swim from a very young age. However, they will still need to be supervised by an adult at all times to ensure water safety. After formal backyard swimming classes for kids, consider signing your little one up for Surf lifesaving programs, where they can learn valuable skills about water safety when it comes to beaches, tides, and more!5.Safety fence in your pool.
With an adequately installed pool safety fence, you can make sure children don’t wander into your pool unsupervised. For some regions, the law requires you to install a pool safety fence around your pool. If not, you should still surround your pool with a pool fence at least 1.2 metres (four feet) tall to help keep kids from accessing an unsupervised pool area. Install pool fence gates with latches that are beyond a child’s reach and use a padlock in conjunction with the latch. Don’t use chain-link fences as those are easy for children to climb.6. Keep your pool well equipped with safety equipment.
Ensure that you have a First Aid kit, safety ring, rope, and phone near your pool. Make sure the babysitters you hire know about the regulations regarding your swimming pool in Port Macquarie-Hastings. Having the right equipment at your pool means that it’s well-equipped to deal with any accidents.7. Beware of drains.
Watch the drains in your pool and hot tub – body parts and hair can get trapped in the suction, resulting in fatal consequences like your child drowning. Put in drain covers when the pool is not being used, and consider installing multiple drains to reduce suction. Make sure your children don’t play near the hot tub suction!8. Clean up toys when not in use.
It’s fun to play games in the swimming pool, but be sure to clean up! When you’re done with toys, get them out of the pool. A child might fall in the water while trying to retrieve their favorite toy.9. Never let your child swim alone.
Make sure your child is not swimming alone so that there’s always someone for them to go to in case of trouble! Regardless of age, your children should be using the buddy system.10. Make sure your children don’t engage in horseplay in the pool.
This is a key swimming rule you should teach your child. In the water, make sure your children don’t push or jump on any other children – it’s unsafe swimming practice and can result in an accident.How to Choose A Private Swimming Teacher in Port Macquarie-Hastings

Private Baby Swimming lessons in Port Macquarie-Hastings for young ones shouldn’t feel like a chore. At AquaMobile Swim School, we’re committed to making swimming fun for your little ones.
We at AquaMobile have compiled 5 Ways to Make At Home Swimming Lessons for Babies Fun.
- Use combinations of swimming aids such as fins, pullbuoys or snorkels. Different aids help swimmers to target train, and focus on specific techniques. The addition of swim aids is novel and interesting, and is a fun addition to regular swimming drills.
- Have a diverse range of sets and drills to alternate between. This helps to give young swimmers in Port Macquarie-Hastings a variety of training exercises to do in the water and keeps their practice time from being overly monotonous while they are still adjusting.
- Include land drills into practice times. Allowing infants and toddlers to exercise on dry land before or after working in the water offers a change of environment, and a chance to work on different and alternative exercises that impact performance in the water.
- Brainstorm target goals together with students. By giving each kid a strong sense of ownership over their own swimming training, you increase motivation and encourage a sense of responsibility and pride in training exercises.
- Play interactive water sports such as water polo for kids or sign up for Nippers Clubs & Surf Lifesaving. These activities are physically rigorous, but are light-hearted activities, and is another way to take a short but pertinent break from more intensive, solo training regimes in Port Macquarie-Hastings.
Some Frequently Asked Questions:
How long will it take for my child to learn swim?
A: Every infant, baby and toddler is different — that means each child will progress at a different rate. We tailor our kids swimming lessons at home for each student, depending on their skills. By booking one of our AquaMobile private swim instructor, we’ll be able to get a better grasp on the skill level of the student. Some common factors that slow down your child’s learn-to-swim progress during their at home swimming lessons are explained in our blog post here.How frequently should I book private baby swimming lessons for my children?
A: Most students in Port Macquarie-Hastings tend to progress faster with 2-3 kids swimming lessons per week. Once a week backyard swimming classes for kids are not ideal because children tend to forget too much in between their private swimming lessons. Intensive programs of everyday kids swimming lessons at home are also effective and work best for families who vacation or have busy schedules. Research has shown that skills are better acquired with regular intensive practice rather than intermittent practice. With our experience over the past 11 years, we agree!Can I book a trial private infant swimming lesson in Port Macquarie-Hastings?
A: Trial private baby swimming lessons are not a good indicator of the progress that will be made throughout a series of 8 or more at home swimming lessons for babies. The first private swim lesson often establishes comfort level, as this is where the bonding and rapport between student and private Swim Teacher begins to form. It can take 2-3 swim lessons to build that connection and trust between swim teacher and student, and to see visible progress. We do have a 100% Satisfaction Guarantee — if you aren’t satisfied after your baby swimming lesson, we’ll set you up with another swimming instructor free of charge.
