Early Years Swim Vest FAQ's

No. This toddler Swim Vest is a swimming aid to help children learn to swim and should never be used as a life-saving device. 

Unlike life jackets, which are designed to turn an unconscious person face-up in the water, swim vests rely on the wearer being conscious and able to kick or paddle.

No, armbands should not be used with this swim vest. The buoyancy provided by the swim vest is enough to hold children in the correct position for swimming.

This Swim Vest is designed to hold toddlers in the optimal position for learning to swim, gently tipping their shoulders forward towards the water. For the first wear, we recommend holding your child’s hands to help them adjust to balancing in the water.

Unlike the Splash About Go Splash Swim Vest, the Early Years Swim Vest is specially designed for toddlers aged 1–3. It features added neck support to help keep little heads above water and a unique float system – with 4 removable floats at the back and fixed front floats – to give younger children the extra stability and safety they need when first learning to swim.

Rinse in cool water after use and leave to air dry out of direct sunlight.
