Baby Pool Floats

...

When can babies use pool floats?

Typically, babies can start using pool floats when they are 6 months old. It’s important to choose a float specifically designed for infants and provides enough support for their head and neck in the water.

Are pool floats safe?

When used correctly and under adult supervision, baby pool floats are safe. Baby floats come in all shapes and sizes, so always refer to the specific product instructions on age and safety recommendations when shopping for your child. We also recommend choosing floats with safety features like seat straps, safety valves, and anti-leak designs to help your child stay upright in the water.

What should a baby wear in the pool?

A swim diaper and a snug-fitting swimsuit are essential to keep your baby comfortable and prevent leaks in the pool. Also, don’t forget about sun protection. Shade is the best way to shield your baby from the sun, so add a swim shirt or opt for a baby pool float with shade to protect their delicate skin from the sun’s harmful UV rays.
