Drowning is the leading cause of injury-related death in children. According to a report made by the American Academy of Pediatrics, in 2000, there were over 1,400 deaths due to drowning in ages zero to 20 in the U.S. alone. Over 91 percent of all the drowning deaths were unintentional and were not related to boating. In the same study, Doctor Ruth A. Brenner<\/strong>, MD, MPH, confirms that close supervision of young children around any water is an essential preventative strategy, but inevitable lapses make supervision alone insufficient.<\/p>\n

For this reason, a new technique has been fairly successful in order to defeat this issue. The drown-proof technique<\/strong>\u00a0helps newborns acclimate to\u00a0the aquatic environment, and may ultimately save them from drowning accidents. Before the baby can even learn how to swim, certified professionals instruct the baby on how to flip over and float by his or herself.<\/p>\n

Although being very efficient, pediatrician Barbara Smith<\/strong>, M.D., advises that the technique is no substitute for adult supervision. “While a very young child may learn to float or swim to the side of the pool, this doesn’t mean he’ll be able to apply these skills in a panic situation,” Dr. Smith says.<\/p>\n

A royal influence made the technique famous recently.\u00a0Before being Princess Charlene of Monaco, Charlene Wittstock<\/strong> was a South African Olympic swimmer who participated on the Sydney Olympics in 2000. Last December, she celebrated her twins,\u00a0Jacques<\/strong> and Gabriella’s,<\/strong> first birthday with a v\u00eddeo<\/a> in which she shared some of the joys of motherhood. One of the most important things to her was to have her twins learn to be safe in the water.<\/p>\n

The proud swimmer teaches her kids the drown-proof technique as a self-rescue method. “It means they can swim before they can walk,” Charlene said. “They’ll be comfortable in any aquatic method.”<\/p>\n

Charlene has founded the Princess Charlene of Monaco Foundation<\/a>, where five-time Olympian Dara Torres<\/strong> is one of the ambassadors.\u00a0Its mission is to raise public awareness of the dangers of water and teach children preventative measures. The World Health Organization stated that children under the age of five are the most affected.<\/p>\n

Princess Charlene was announced the Special Olympics Ambassador in 2011, where she promotes respect and inclusion for people with intellectual disabilities to a worldwide audience. Charlene has said that the Special Olympics movement is close to her heart because, as a former athlete, she values its role in “using the power of sport to change lives.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
