The best swimming pools for children in Kazan in 2020

It has long been known that water has a positive effect on the human body, especially on children. Swimming develops coordination, strengthens muscles and normalizes their tone, helps to strengthen the immune system.

Therefore, many parents think about giving their child to swimming as early as possible. To do this, you have to think about choosing a suitable pool. We present you a rating of the best pools for children's swimming in Kazan.

How to choose the right pool for swimming with your child

Nowadays, swimming pools have become widespread, where infant swimming is practiced. They, in the best possible way, meet the needs of young parents who dream of teaching their kids to stay on the surface of the water as early as possible.

In most cases, coaches in such pools begin to work with children from the age of three months. Some accept even very little ones who have barely learned to hold their heads on their own.
Such classes are conducted in some children's centers or clinics. Usually, the child is taught individually in a small bath. You can go to swimming classes immediately after the umbilical cord heals. Therefore, parents looking to swim with a baby should choose swimming pools located close to home.

All the necessary information about the schedule, the cost of classes, the necessary medical certificates can be found out by phone. At the same time, it is also worth asking about the education and the level of professionalism of the trainer and what method of water disinfection is used in this pool.

Before starting to work with a child in the water, it is imperative to consult a pediatrician. This is necessary to assess the child's health and physical indicators. Also, the doctor will identify possible contraindications to swimming. If there is such a need, an additional examination by an otorhinolaryngologist or other narrow specialists may be prescribed.

In addition, the pediatrician may know that in the pool chosen by the parents, one of the children involved in it has suffered. In this case, he will probably advise you to contact another educational institution.

Pool water quality

For children's swimming, the choice of a pool for water quality is one of the determining factors. No matter how much you want, the water in any pool cannot be absolutely sterile, since many children visit it. Such a liquid contains a mass of chemical elements and organic impurities. Whichever method of disinfection is used for water, microorganisms from the bodies of visitors, dust settling into it and other pollution will still get into it.

To reduce the negative impact, water must be disinfected.Several techniques are used for this:

• The most famous, reliable and time-tested method is to cleanse the liquid with chlorine. This option is very cheap and affordable, so it is used more often than others. But the lack of chlorination is that this substance negatively affects the condition of the skin, irritates the mucous membrane of the mouth and eyes. In addition, bleach dries hair and can cause an allergic reaction. To mitigate such a harmful effect, chlorination is usually alternated with other, less harmful methods of purification.
• Ionization of water with copper and silver ions is the most modern and progressive way to neutralize harmful substances in water. At the same time, this processing option is also considered the least popular. The thing is that exceeding the permissible dosage of a substance can cause poisoning with toxins. Although the positive property of ionization is the duration of the treatment result and the effect on all harmful microorganisms.
• Ozonation or water purification with ozone does an excellent job with viruses that cannot be treated with chlorine. But in order to prolong the result of such treatment, a small percentage of chlorine is still added to the water.
• Ultraviolet cleaning is also one of the new products. The disadvantage of this technique is that the processing result is stored for a short time and requires significant financial costs.

What details to look for when choosing a pool

To identify some details that are not noticeable at first glance, it is recommended that you visit the pool yourself. The water should be clear, without any signs of turbidity. The sides of the bowl and the bottom should be free of any slippery areas, corrosion of metal parts or limestone deposits.

If, after the first lesson in the pool, there are no signs of irritation, rashes on the skin, the child does not feel tired and does not show signs of weakness, then you can continue training. It is also worth paying attention to the child's bathing suit: it should not change its shade. If there are even the slightest doubts about the safety of the pool for children, you should not take the child there even if it is located very close to the house or the most experienced and qualified coach conducts classes there.

What to buy for the pool

To swim, any child will need to purchase several items:

• swimsuit for girls and swimming trunks for boys;
• rubber cap;
• Goggles;
• rubber slippers.

You will also need a large bath towel, soap, and a washcloth to clean up before entering the pool.

Babies do not need a bathing suit. Instead, you will need to purchase special swim diapers. They will protect against accidental water pollution. Babies don't need a bathing cap and glasses either.

All children and parents must bring a doctor's note with permission to use the pool before the first lesson. To obtain such a certificate, it is necessary to pass several tests and visit a pediatrician or therapist.

Children need to purchase special sports insurance for recreational swimming. It will be needed in case of injury or harm to health during training and will reimburse the cost of treatment and rehabilitation.
