Drowning can happen in seconds, and in only a few inches of water, so active supervision is #1—keep infants within arm’s reach and stay off your phone. Ensure your pool is secured with a 4-foot, self-latching fence, and always use U.S. Coast Guard-approved life jackets instead of inflatable toys. While swim lessons are great, they don't replace a watchful eye or knowing CPR, so stay alert and never let anyone swim alone. Let’s prevent accidents and keep the water fun for everyone! https://www.mangopediatrics.com/safety/a-parents-guide-to-water-safety #WaterSafety #DrowningPrevention #SafeSwimming #PoolSafety #SummerReady
