Pool Party Lifeguards

Fill the Pool.
We've Got the Water.

A qualified lifeguard on poolside for the whole party, so every guest can swim and you can actually enjoy it. Add a games host and the fun runs itself too.

The Party Lifeguard

Every Swimmer Watched.
Every Minute.

Pool parties get busy fast: jumping, racing, someone always heading for the deep end. Your lifeguard does one job, watching the water, from the first swimmer in to the last one out.

They arrive before the guests, walk the poolside with you, agree the pool rules and set the rescue kit out, so the party starts safely.

Own public liability insurance through RLSS UK lifeguard membership
Pool check and rules agreed with you before anyone swims

Make It Your Party

Lifeguard Only, or the Full Splash.

Lifeguard Cover

Eyes on the Water

A lifeguard on poolside for the whole party while you run it your way. The simplest way to say yes to more swimmers.

Add a Games Host

Pool Games, Led for You

A second team member runs pool games and races while the lifeguard keeps watching. Two jobs, two people, never one.

Bigger Parties

More Than One Lifeguard

Lots of swimmers, a big pool or mixed ages? We tell you how many lifeguards the party needs and send them.

Garden Parties

Summer Afternoons

Family gatherings and garden parties that drift into the pool. Every age watched, whatever the occasion.

No Surprises

Rules Agreed First

Deep end, diving, inflatables: your lifeguard agrees the pool rules with you before anyone gets in, then keeps them.

In the App

Your Booking, Recorded

Your booking sits in the SwimFitz app, with the time your lifeguard signs in on arrival and signs out at the end.

Common Questions

Your Questions, Answered.

Do I need a lifeguard for a pool party at home?
There is no legal requirement for a private home pool, but pool parties are exactly when one person cannot watch everyone. With children, guests who are not strong swimmers or a deep end, a lifeguard means someone is always watching the water while you host.
Can the lifeguard run games as well?
No. The lifeguard only watches the water, because that is the job that keeps everyone safe. If you would like pool games and races run for the guests, add a games host: a second member of our team who leads the fun while the lifeguard keeps watching.
How many lifeguards will my party need?
It depends on how many people will be in the water at once, their ages and swimming ability, and the size and shape of the pool. Tell us those when you enquire and we will confirm the right cover.
Is this the same as your birthday party package?
Our managed birthday party package is a whole party run for you, with games and activities planned around the birthday child. Pool party lifeguards are for any party you are running yourself: you host, we watch the water.
What qualifications and insurance do your lifeguards have?
Every lifeguard holds the RLSS UK National Pool Lifeguard Qualification (NPLQ) or an equivalent pool lifeguard award and a current enhanced DBS certificate, and holds their own public liability insurance through RLSS UK lifeguard membership. We can send copies before the day.
Which days and areas do you cover?
London, the Home Counties & beyond, seven days a week, from morning parties to evening ones. Send your postcode and date and we will confirm availability.
