This week we’re diving into a conversation that every parent, grandparent, and caregiver needs to hear. We sat down with Hayden Wooten, owner of Tiny Fins Survival Swim, to talk about the mission behind teaching our littlest swimmers life-saving skills.

Hayden shares her personal journey—from how she first discovered survival swim lessons to the moment she and her husband decided to take a leap of faith and launch Tiny Fins. What started as a passion rooted in powerful statistics and a desire to prevent childhood drowning has grown into a thriving program helping families across our community feel more confident and prepared around water.

In this episode, Hayden walks us through what survival swim training actually looks like, how instructors are trained, and what parents can expect when their child begins lessons. If you’ve ever seen videos of infants learning to float and wondered, Is that really safe? or Could my child do that?—we’re tackling those questions head-on and busting some common myths and fears along the way.

With May being Pool Safety Month, Hayden also shares practical, must-know tips for keeping kids safe around backyard pools and water this summer.

This conversation is equal parts inspiring, educational, and empowering—and it just might change the way you think about water safety forever.
