So many on here can’t stand kids even though they were one once. 

We've had our own kids and we NEVER had them in the ship's pools if they were wearing diapers (or "little swimmers").

If your 15 month old is totally potty trained, then you can use the pool.  If not, then it's the "splash zone" only...IF that ship has it. Otherwise, you can bring a blow up tub, for splashing.  Empty into a floor or shower drain....NOT onto the deck or into the pool!

 

Ship's pools aren't like land-based pools, and any fecal material in the pool (whether it's contained in a swim diaper or not) will contaminate the pool.

 

I think your only "babysitting" option is to use the nursery.  They do age-appropriate activities!

If your 15-month-old is potty trained, you need to sell that secret and buy a ship for yourself. Your baby shouldn't be in any pool at all on board any ship, only the splash zones and the like. Those are ONLY for non-trained kids in swim diapers, so if you have two kids it will be hard to supervise both at once.
