Is it a bird.. is it a plane .. Izzy a toddler?

You hear that a woman has collapsed as a result of an allergic reaction and as she gasps for air a heroic, super intelligent and calmly composed young person rushes to her aid, dials 999 and directs the emergency services to her side and you automatically think, she must be a PA!

Well there are many years ahead for her to prepare for a career in executive support but young Isabelle Keeling is in fact a 2-year old toddler who learned her skills and saved her mother’s life thanks to that well known training source, Tweenies. She had watched an episode recently describing what to do in an emergency and her Mum had played games wit her to amplify the point. Well done Izzy.

If any APA members or readers have kids who have done similarly outstanding deeds we would love to hear.
