“I still remember the first time a parent called me and told me a child had rescued themselves. I was in tears,” says Justina. As a Water Survival Instructor and mother of two young children, Justina’s work is personal. She’s seen its life-saving power firsthand, after all, and knows the life-or-death difference it can make. And from the heartwarming feedback she’s received from parents, she knows she’s found a lifelong calling. Having taught 250 kids to date, Justina spends up to 5 hours a day in the water at her local YMCA — and considers it a privilege.
