Vahnessa Estien is a dedicated wife and loving mother who resides in Hollywood, Fl with her husband and two beautiful boys. This homemaker splits her time between taking care of her family, and taking action to spread the message of water safety to protect children and families. Vahnessa began this journey after the unfortunate drowning accident of her daughter Soleila G. Estien in 2009. She currently serves as a committee member of the Soleila G. Estien Memorial Swim Strong Scholarship that awards swimming lessons to children. Vahnessa has also created a website, arainbowforus.com, to echo her message of water safety. Her passion for this cause continues with her first book, "The Boy Who Could Swim". This book chronicles her son's struggles with learning to swim, the sheer tenacity exhibited by never giving up, and the joy experienced when he'd finally mastered the skill. She hopes the delightful book filled with rhyming words will resonate with children, parents and swim instructors everywhere.
