A girl of seven performed ­emergency CPR on her mum – which she learned from YouTube videos.

Jessica Kinder was watching The Grinch when she saw her mum Becky Green, 32, have a seizure and collapse to the ground.

She threw a glass of water in her mum’s face to “try and wake her up” before ­she straddled her and administered CPR.

Jessica then tried to unlock her mum’s phone before realising she did not need a password or fingerprint to ring 999.

Becky, an admin worker for the NHS, said: “When I woke up the paramedics were here and my little girl was hysterical.
Mum of two, Becky Green 32, said: “I asked, ‘How did you know what to do?’ She said, ‘Oh I saw someone do it on YouTube.’ I couldn’t believe it"
Becky Green, an admin worker for the NHS, said she woke up being treated by paramedics and has since described Jessica as her "hero"

"I’m so proud, I can’t believe how heroically she acted. It must have been so stressful but she stepped up and tried to save me.

“For a seven-year-old to do that is incredible – she’s my hero. I’ve got her something extra special for Christmas.”

After being taken to hospital in Preston, Lancs, Becky found out she has epilepsy.

Becky, who also has 10-year-old son Grant, said: “I asked, ‘How did you know what to do?’

“She said, ‘Oh I saw someone do it on YouTube.’ I couldn’t believe it.”

Following the incident last month the schoolgirl has been given a bravery award and now wants to be a doctor or nurse.
