What to use for when toddler goes into pool

My 2.5 year old has never been in a pool/swimming before and we're going on holiday in April and will have our own pool to use. Can anyone tell me what I might need in terms of inflatable ring/arm bands? I'm completely clueless.

I wasn't comfortable taking him when he was really young, and then covid struck and places shut etc and now seen as we will have a pool to ourselves in April, I feel it better to wait until then to get him into a pool so we have no distractions or other kids around.

Thanks

My little one was quite small when we took her swimming for first time and we had a ring with a seat in but LO is 16 months now and too big have you looked at the toddler life jackets you can buy you can buy them off Amazon

Maybe not that one exactly have a shop around reviews are a bit iffy but you can definitely buy them even from swimming baths and use a ring aswell and arm bands use all 3
