Water Safety Tips:
    • Always stay within arm's reach of your child near water.
    • Never leave a child unsupervised or in the care of older children around water.
    • Use 4 sided isolation fencing around pools.  Door alarms, pool alarms and pool covers when used properly can add an extra layer of protection.
    • Have children and adults wear personal floation devices or life jackets when boating. 
    • Have children take swimming lessons but don't assume they are water safe. 
    • Learn CPR in case of emergency.
    • Keep a phone handy if needed to call for help.
    • Have a designated "Water Watcher"  to supervise anyone in the pool.
 
Fact:
Home swimming pools are the most common place for childrenunder age 5 to drown.

MO Senate panel considers CPR training in schools

Associated Press, News Tribune

American Academy of Pediatrics and Car Seat Safety Technicians recommend that babies ride rear-facing until 2 years old or until they max out rear-facing weight and height limits for their car seats. A rear-facing  car seat supports the child's head, neck and spinal cord better and in a motor vehicle collision spreads the crash forces across the child's entire body. Share pictures of your baby or child riding rear-facing in their car seat and encourage other parents to keep their kids riding rear-facing longer. Like us on Facebook and share your photos.
