About us

As a mum of three boys — including a fearless two-year-old — I know how important water confidence is here in Australia. With beaches, pools, and sunshine all around us, helping our kids feel safe and calm in the water is simply part of everyday life.

That’s why I set out to create arm rings that offer something different — a design that gives children natural balance, gentle support from underneath, and the freedom to move without feeling restricted. The rounded structure helps kids stay centred and steady in the water, making their float feel easier and more natural.

And the kids absolutely love them. They feel secure, they feel free, and their water confidence grows almost instantly. It’s one of those products where you can truly see the difference in how they relax and explore.

For parents, they’re just as much of a win — lightweight, easy to pack, and far less bulky than traditional swim vests commonly used in Australia.

Swim Buddies was created to bring a calmer, more confident introduction to the water for little swimmers. Because every child deserves to feel relaxed in the pool — and every parent deserves products that make learning to swim feel easier, not harder.
