Frequently Asked Questions – Lifeguards for Hire

What certifications do your lifeguards hold?

All Upstate Aquatics lifeguards are certified in Lifeguarding, CPR/AED, and First Aid. Some guards may also have waterfront, oxygen administration, or advanced certifications depending on the assignment.

Yes! We specialize in private event coverage including birthdays, family gatherings, and neighborhood pool parties. Our guards will monitor swimmers and help ensure a safe environment.

Our standard minimum booking is 2 hours, but this can vary depending on location and availability. Contact us for custom arrangements.

Absolutely. We offer daily, weekly, and full-season staffing for camps, schools, municipalities, and more. Long-term contracts may qualify for discounted rates.

Lifeguards are typically covered under our general liability policy, and we can provide a certificate of insurance (COI) upon request. Always clarify specific insurance needs when booking.

We recommend booking at least 1–2 weeks in advance, especially for weekend or holiday events. For last-minute requests, we do our best to accommodate based on availability.

Frequently asked questions about Lifeguards for hire

How far in advance should Lifeguards for hire be booked?

Before the season rather than during it. Guard supply tightens sharply from late spring, and site orientation has to happen before opening day.

Are the guards provided for Lifeguards for hire certified and insured?

Yes. Every guard holds current Lifeguarding with First Aid and CPR/AED for the Professional Rescuer, and you receive documentation for your own records and insurer.

Can Lifeguards for hire cover only part of a season?

Yes. Weekend-only, holiday and peak-day coverage are common, and many sites keep a core team and use us for shortfalls.
