Lisa-Marie Wyatt was saved by her two-year-old daughter Mollie after she collapsed at their home in Cornwall.
Lisa-Marie, 29, lost consciousness in her living room - unbeknown to her, she was suffering from a life-threatening infection of the stomach's lining.
The mum-of-three was suffering from excruciating stomach cramps last Wednesday after having felt unwell for a few days, before she collapsed and banged her head.
WATCH: Would you know how to save your child if they were choking?
And if it weren't for the quick-thinking actions of her two-year-old daughter Mollie, things could have turned out a lost worse for the childminder.
After seeing her mum was unconscious, brave Mollie dragged a chair into the kitchen and climbed onto the counter to reach her mum's mobile phone.
She then brought it to her and was able to wake her up, helping her to then call the emergency services for herself.
Whilst they waited for the ambulance to arrive, the courageous little girl even thought to soothe her younger brother, eight-month-old Freddie, by fetching his dummy and giving it to him.
The astounding youngster then climbed onto the sofa to keep watch for a "nee-nor."
Lisa-Marie was diagnosed with peritonitis, a life-threatening infection of the lining of the stomach, which was caused by appendicitis.
She explained: "So many parents teach older children about 999 and I've never thought about teaching a two-year-old.
"Parents can find it annoying when children ask to play with their mobile but it has helped out in this case.
"Her experience with FaceTime especially helped because she always asks to speak to granddad."
Lisa-Marie explained how her daughter might consider a career as a paramedic one day: "Mollie is such a good girl. She has her doctor's kit, her auntie is a nurse and her uncle and my dad are firefighters so maybe a career in the emergency services is in the family.
"I am so proud. I can't believe she knew she needed to help me."
Lisa-Marie, whose fiancé Steve Davey, 37, was out at work when the drama unfolded, added: "My little girl woke me up and was poking my face but I was really out of it. I think I was in and out of consciousness.
"The next thing I remember she was saying, 'Phone granddad' but I dialled 999 and spoke to them on speaker because I couldn't move.
"The emergency services were really good on the phone and said they were going to send an ambulance straight away, which took 35 minutes.
"Luckily the back door was unlocked because I wouldn't have been able to let them in.
"During that time Mollie was lying next to me with her arms around me. Her brother started crying so she gave him his dummy."
What a caring and thoughtful little girl!
The mum's other son, seven-year-old Ethan, was also out at school: "I think it would have been around six hours until someone got home after I collapsed if she didn't get me help.
"She loves ambulances and calls them 'nee-nors' so I told her to get up onto the sofa to keep an eye out for the nee-nor."
"It was possible that I could have got sepsis and doctors were concerned about that to begin with."
"The NHS is amazing but I am very happy to be home."
