Welcome to Ashley’s Favorite Things! This page is a collection of swim essentials, products, and trusted brands that I personally recommend to my swim families. From swim diapers and goggles to life vests and other water-safety essentials, these are products I have personally selected and love. You’ll also find a few of my favorite local businesses and vendor partners—people and brands I am happy to recommend to the families in my swim community.

Favorite Swim Essentials
Reusable Swim Diapers
Reusable swim diapers are required in our pool for children who are not fully toilet trained and must fit snugly around the legs and waist to help prevent leaks.
Disposable Swim Diapers
Swim goggles are a great tool for helping children feel comfortable and confident in the water, and these are a few of Ashley’s favorite options.
Goggles
For life jackets, look for a U.S. Coast Guard–approved option; HyperLite is one of my favorites, and you’re welcome to try mine before purchasing—similar options can also sometimes be found at Costco.
