RESERVE EARLY FOR THE BEST CHANCE AT FINDING AN AVAILABLE GUARD

We run a premium lifeguard service. All of our lifeguards have a minimum of two years of experience. We review your property in advance so we're familiar with the pool and deck features, emergency action plan, restroom, and relevant party logistics such as furniture placement. Property review may be done virtually or in-person. Lifeguards:

• Arrive with all necessary equipment: safety tube, whistle, CPR mask and basic first-aid kit.
• Wear appropriate attire, and maintain a professional demeanor.
• Provide constant, vigilant surveillance of the pool and immediate deck area to help ensure the safety of all present. Guards may require short breaks depending on the length of the party. This will be clarified in the lifeguard contract.​
• Provide emergency care and treatment as required, and until the arrival, if necessary, of emergency care services.
• If ever the guard must attend to a guest, they will clear the pool until the situation is resolved.

Frequently Asked Questions

HOW MUCH NOTICE IN NEEDED?
We require minimum one week notice for an event. If you need a guard more quickly, send in a request and we'll do our best to book a guard. If we secure a guard with less than a weeks notice, a $50 rush fee will apply.

HOW MANY LIFEGUARDS ARE NEEDED?
One lifeguard is usually sufficient for up to 25 swimmers of varying ability. Our lifeguard coordinator will work with you to finalize the number of lifeguards needed based on your party and pool size.

DO THE LIFEGUARDS CONDUCT GAMES OR SWIMMING LESSONS?
No. Although our lifeguards are highly personable, their sole responsibility is to keep people safe in and around the pool area. If you want a pool party game facilitator, or group lesson instructor, we can offer additional staff highly skilled in these areas.

HOW WILL MY EVENT BE CONFIRMED?
You'll receive a Lifeguard Contract which will confirm the date, time and name of your assigned Lifeguard. The contract also includes a detailed description of homeowner responsibilities, lifeguard responsibilities, as well as our liability waiver.

WHAT'S THE REFUND POLICY FOR BAD WEATHER?
You can either reschedule or get a full refund if you have called/texted your lifeguard(s) or lifeguard coordinator BEFORE they have made the trip to your event, and specifically cancel the event the due to bad weather.  You may reschedule rain days with no penalty. However, if the lifeguard is on his or her way, or arrives having not been reached before they’ve left for your event, we must charge you for a 2-hour minimum shift plus any rush and/or excess travel fee previously agreed.
