A Florida swim instructor has gone viral with a public service announcement for parents, warning them not to buy blue-colored swimsuits for their kids, as the color can make it harder to identify a child in the water.
Certified infant swim instructor Nicole “Nikki” Scarnati, 32, lives in Spring Hill, Florida, where she was born and raised. She has two daughters aged 8 and 2. After posting a video on social media of her youngest swimming in their backyard pool wearing a blue swimsuit, in which the toddler’s body all but disappears under the water, Nicole amassed millions of views.
