At Goldfish Swim School, we’re always looking for new ways to help kids be safer, happier, and more confident — in and out of the pool! That’s why we’re so excited to share BIG news: we’ve o-FISH-ally joined the American Academy of Pediatrics’ new Injury Prevention Assembly as inaugural members! 

This incredible group brings together leaders and medical professionals who share one big goal — keeping kids safe! From the pool to the playground, these experts are working to prevent injuries and help children grow up healthy and strong. And here’s something we’re especially proud of: Goldfish Swim School is the only swim school serving on the Assembly!

Joining the Injury Prevention Assembly is a natural fit for us. Every splash, kick, and smile at Goldfish Swim School is part of our mission to help children learn life-saving swim skills and build the confidence they need to stay safe in and around the water. 

By teaming up with the AAP, we’re helping to make an even bigger impact — sharing the importance of water safety with families everywhere and supporting the AAP’s incredible efforts to protect kids from preventable injuries. Together, we’re working toward a world where every child can swim safely, play confidently, and dream big!

We’re so lucky to have Dr. Molly O’Shea, Goldfish Swim School’s official pediatrician (and proud AAP member!), helping lead the way. Dr. Molly brings her passion for child wellness and her medical expertise to everything we do — from shaping our swim lesson curriculum to supporting the social and emotional growth of every little swimmer who walks through our doors.

It’s no coincidence that we’re sharing this news in October — Children’s Health Month! This month is all about celebrating children’s health and empowering parents with the knowledge and resources they need to help their kids thrive. The American Academy of Pediatrics is a leader in this effort, offering a treasure trove of tips and tools for families on their HealthyChildren.org website — from water safety to wellness, nutrition, sleep, and more. 

At Goldfish Swim School, we believe every child deserves to be healthy, happy, and full of confidence. Whether it’s mastering their first float or learning how to safely splash with friends, we’re here to help families create those big moments of growth — one swim lesson at a time.

We’re honored to be a part of the AAP’s Injury Prevention Assembly and to continue doing what we love: helping kids make waves toward brighter, safer futures. Together with the AAP and Dr. Molly, we’re making a splash for child safety — and we’re just getting started!
