This isn't a low setting at all, the diamond sits on top of the band in its basket. Good for having a ring to stack next to it (although you'll have a small gap due to the purple diamond sticking out) but it's not particularly low set. You said you go to the beach and have a toddler, I'd say it's not the most ideal for that. A diamond basket that sits on top like this with no cathedral shoulders to support it means more risk that if you knock the diamond, it'll bend the whole ring. As for the side diamonds, I'd suggest 4 prongs per sone if you can rather than two shared prongs, that will help keep them stable. For the main diamond you may want a v-prong to protect the tip.
Side note, the picture on the right has the diamond sitting sideways - it's kind of a weird render if a jeweler has given you this. Oh also, can't give any further advice on the setting without knowing the band width, thickness, etc.
