    Firstly, how to keep risk of drowning at bay
  • Never leave a child alone in a bathtub. If you must leave the bathroom, take the kid with yourself.

    Also, avoid keeping buckets of water around children.

    In case you have a toddler, always keep bathroom doors and toilet lids closed.

    If you have a pool at home, get it fenced.

    Last but not the least, carefully watch your children whenever they're around water.
