from The Truman Charities Podcast · host Jamie Truman
You cover outlets, block stairs, baby-proof the cabinets — but did you miss the biggest risk in your home? Drowning is the number one cause of accidental death for children ages 1–4, but most parents don’t realize how crucial water safety really is until it’s too late. After losing her son, Andrea Montoya turned her grief into action, founding the Sylas Project to raise awareness, provide swim scholarships, and help families prevent the kind of tragedy she experienced. In this episode, Andrea shares what she wishes she had known earlier about water safety, the common misconceptions that put young children at risk, and what parents can do to keep their kids safe. You’ll learn why survival swim is better than traditional swim lessons and the one product most parents trust but can actually put their kids in danger. This is a must-have conversation as summer approaches, so tune in now to start preparing!
