Would you rent a house with a pool with kids ages ranging 4-14 if you have no lifeguard license? I’m scared.

Yes, if the kids know how to swim & you'd watch them like a hawk. The pool should have a good fence of course.

We're doing exactly that right now. The 3 older ones can swim, but not my 4yo. They know they are not allowed in the pool without a parent actively watching them. And the 4yo needs to wear a puddle jumper whenever outside.

My kids can swim well bh. And yes the little ones will wear puddle jumpers of course. But what if big son gets out of breath while swimming in the deep waters? I always had a fear of not being able to come up from an inside dive. And I loooved the pool! I’m imagining all worst case scenarios where I need to jump in to save and I can’t. Am I being paranoid?

How big is the pool and how deep could it possibly be if it's a home pool?
My kids have all been able to swim in Olympic sized pools since they were 8.
A home pool is tiny compared to that.
A kid who knows how to swim shouldn't get out of breath in a home pool.
They usually aren't that deep either.
Usually no diving allowed.

It is a very big pool. At least 8 ft deep. We want to rent a very big villa. Only that is available in the area, aderaba, where can I rent a small pool with a house for a few days in nj ?
