WHERE LIFESAVING SKILLS MEET LIFELONG CONFIDENCE

Did you know that drowning is the number one cause of death for children ages 1–4 in the U.S. and remains a leading cause of death for older children and adults? Or that over half (55%) of U.S. adults have never taken a swim lesson? Swim lessons have been shown to reduce the risk of drowning by 88%, giving parents a greater peace of mind and helping children become safer in and around all kinds of water. That’s why we’ve partnered with the National Drowning Prevention Alliance (NDPA), a leading organization dedicated to preventing drowning through education, advocacy, and innovation. Together, we’re working to expand water safety awareness and reduce drowning, one swim lesson at a time.

We love the instructors at Safe Splash! Both of my kids are always counting down to their next swim lesson because they’re so excited to get back in the pool. They’ve both come so far as swimmers in the last couple of months, and I feel like the school does a great job showing them proper swimming and water safety techniques while still making the lessons exciting and fun.

Water Safety: A Lifesaving Skill for All Ages

At [Brand], water safety isn’t just a topic we cover—it’s the foundation of everything we do. Whether you’re introducing your 4-month-old to the water or learning to swim yourself, we’re dedicated to equipping families with the knowledge, skills, and confidence to enjoy the water safely.

The Importance of Water Safety

Drowning remains the leading cause of injury-related death for children ages 1–4, and yet, it’s one of the most preventable tragedies. Swim lessons alone can reduce the risk of drowning by up to 88%, making them a critical tool for every family. Beyond that, developing strong swimming techniques can empower swimmers of all ages to navigate water safely and confidently.

Water Safety Essentials for Every Age

Preserver-W

Infants & Toddlers

For the littlest swimmers, supervision is key. Even small amounts of water can pose a risk, so constant attention and instilling good habits early is essential.

Stay Close: Always be within arm’s reach of your child.

Teach Permission: Start reinforcing “ask before entering” behaviors in every lesson.

Use Life Jackets: Choose Coast Guard-approved life jackets for open water adventures.

Preserver-W

Children

Young swimmers benefit most from consistent lessons and vigilant supervision.

Assign a Water Watcher: Designate an undistracted adult to monitor swimmers.

Reinforce Water Rules: Review “ask before entering” and “reach or throw, never go” techniques regularly.

Take Swim Lessons: Build skills like floating, breathing control, and self-rescue.

Teens

While older kids may seem independent, they still need guidance and preparation for water safety.

Always Swim with a Buddy: Even strong swimmers shouldn’t swim alone.
Learn CPR: Equip teens with the tools to respond in emergencies.
Avoid Risky Behavior: Discuss the dangers of alcohol and peer pressure around water.

Adults

Water safety isn’t just for kids. Adults should model safe behaviors and understand their own limits.

Know Your Abilities: Be honest about your swimming skills and take lessons if needed.
Stay Sober: Avoid alcohol around water activities.
Use Life Jackets: Wear Coast Guard-approved jackets when boating or participating in water sports.

Ask Before Entering

Reinforcing the importance of permission at every age.

Safety Techniques

Rollovers, safe entries/exits, and breath control.

Self-Rescue Skills

Building endurance and efficient strokes to navigate out of danger.

Hailea Johnson, General Manager & Customer Experience

Hi there, welcome to the SafeSplash at Denver (Park Hill). I swam competitively in high school, with a focus in breast stroke and distance. I started at SafeSplash in 2012. I have a strong passion for sharing water safety and swimming skills with my fellow students and coworkers. I'm very excited to be working with Rowan as Co-General Managers of Park Hill location! I am a mother of two, licensed photographer and a full-time student at WU pursuing my forensic psychology degree, and I plan on pursing my doctoral degree in forensic psychology.

Next time you are at the pool, come up and say hello! I would be more than happy to discuss anything and everything swimming with you and your swimmer!

Rowan Sewell, General Manager & Product Experience

My Name is Rowan Sewell and I started working with SafeSplash in June of 2022. I'm very excited to be working with Hailea as Co-General Managers of our Park Hill location! Competitive swimming was a big focus of my life from elementary to high school instilling a great passion for stroke technique and water safety in me. Having the opportunity to pass these skills on to my students is one of the most rewarding experiences of my life. Outside of swimming I am an avid climber, hiker, reader & home cook.

Lindsay Lidlow, District Manager

Welcome to SafeSplash: Denver (Park Hill)! As the district manager for this location, I am excited to be a part of everyone's SafeSplash experience. I have been a swim instructor for 6 years and counting. My favorite part of working at SafeSplash is the fact that I am able to teach people of all ages to be safe, comfortable, and confident in the water. Being from the east coast (Virginia then Florida then back to Virginia) I have spent a lot of time in the water. Some of my fondest memories as a kiddo is spending days at the pool - jumping off of the diving board, and making new swimming friends.

OUR STAFF

I enjoy riding my bike around Denver. I like rollercoasters and cars. I am also a Lifeguard.

Ian H Instructor, Lifeguard

I've been swimming my entire life, and I enjoy making swimming fun. My favorite animal is a jellyfish.

Vanessa R Instructor

I love the comfort of being in a warm pool and I'm excited to spread the love of water through teaching. I also love my cat as if it were a real child and love to sing at the top of my lungs in my car with my windows down.

Toni L Instructor

David started teaching swimming lessons 13 years ago in Minneapolis, where he grew up. After visiting Denver in 2014 to run qualifiers for American Ninja Warrior, he fell in love with the city and moved here the following year.
