Toddler saves mum’s life by using her fingers to unlock phone and call for help

A two-year-old girl saved her mother by managing to unlock her phone and raise the alarm after she fell unconscious at home.

Little Sophia Mizen sprung into action when mum Samantha, 28, collapsed in her kitchen in Poole, Dorset.

She got hold of her mum’s Huawei phone and unlocked it using the fingerprint sensor with her mum’s digit.

Sophia then opened Facebook messenger before clicking on her grandmother’s face to video call her.

Grandmother Debbie Baker, who was 160 miles away in Herefordshire, picked up the call and asked Sophia where her mum was.

The toddler replied that she was ‘poorly’ so Debbie asked her to show her mum on the phone.

When she pointed the camera at her mother lying ‘face down’ on the floor,

Debbie called 999. Sophia and her older brother Ethan, four, who had been ‘hysterical’ at seeing his mum in this state, retrieved a blanket and pillow for her.

They waited with her until the emergency services arrived. Samantha was rushed to hospital where doctors said she had collapsed through dehydration and a stomach bug.

She has made a full recovery and is back at home where Sophia is regularly checking up on her.

Samantha, who was has a baby boy called Finley, said her daughter must have overheard the safety advice she had given Ethan about how to react in an emergency.

She said: “Sophia has always been caring, she would always come and cuddle me and ask me if I needed anything and she looks after her baby brother Finley.

“I would have expected Ethan to help me, because we have been through with him what he needs to do. I never realised she soaked in what I was telling her brother.”
