This week we’re sharing probably one of the most important conversations we’ll ever have on here. It’s an episode EVERY adult needs to hear whether you are a parent, aunt/uncle, have friends with kids, babysit/nanny or honestly whoever and wherever you are. With Summer here, being informed on the importance of water safety should be at the top of all of our lists. Today we sit down with mom of 8 & former US National Women’s Volleyball Player, Morgan Beck Miller who opens up about losing her daughter Emmy to drowning & sparked a fire in her to educate all parents on how to keep their kids safe with water. We feel so honored to have a platform where we can share all kinds of conversations within parenting, even the tough and uncomfortable ones. (TW: we touch on infant loss)

Key Takeaways:

• The best swim classes to teach survival from the age of 6 months+ (ex. ISR)
• Unsafe bodies of water outside of pools
• Why any form of flotation devices are an absolute NO
• Drowning is the #1 cause of death for children under age 5, it should be the #1 topic of conversation
• 70% of drownings happen during non-swim times 
• 88% of the time there is at least 1 adult present during a drowning 
• A child under 30 lbs can drown in under 30 seconds (& it’s silent)
