Before the cookouts, pool days, and lake trips begin - a gentle reminder 🤍

Water safety is important 🐠 Drowning is the #1 cause of death in children four and under. “Everyone” is watching until it’s time to start the grill, grab a drink from the cooler, go the bathroom, etc. Accidents happen quickly, making life jackets and “water watchers” essentials for young children around any body of water.

Safe Kids > Anything Else.

Join us for the first-ever PJs for Safe Sleep, a National Day of Awareness held on April 16, aligned with National Wear Your Pajamas to Work Day.

By wearing your pajamas, you help spark conversations about infant safe sleep and remind families that how and where a baby sleeps matters.

First responders are often able to identify unsafe sleep environments while on a call in a home. That’s why we created a First Responder–specific module within our Professional Training Series, offering clear, evidence-based guidance on infant safe sleep and suffocation prevention.

This free, online training is concise, practical, and built for real-world calls, helping you identify risk, have informed conversations, and connect families to safer sleep resources. Because in the right moment, the right information can save a baby’s life.
