Babies are impressionable creatures. They soak up information like a sponge, mimicking and repeating everything they hear around them. Truly, their environment is key to how this will play out. Whether your baby recites swear words or Shakespeare is wholly dependent on you.
In this adorable video, you see an adorable baby showing off skills she learned in her mom’s CPR class.
Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (most often abbreviated to CPR) is a life-saving technique used in a variety of situations. Whether it be a heart attack, near drowning, or someone whose heartbeat or breathing has stopped —CPR can be a factor determining life or death.
Babies are known to get into things they shouldn’t, and this mom wanted to be prepared for the worst. So, she registered for a CPR class and brought her baby daughter along.
During the class, the woman held on to the instructor’s every word— but, as everyone would soon learn, her baby was doing the same!
After the class was over, the mother put her daughter on the ground. That’s when the baby inched her way over to the CPR dummy and showed everyone her life-saving moves. In the video, the baby is clad in a lavender shirt and headband.
In the video, you see her crawl up and start administering chest compressions to the CPR dummy.
At one point, she even stops and babbles, using her baby language to ask if he’s okay.
Then, after a few more chest compressions, she turns to give the dummy mouth-to-mouth.
Although you can’t see her behind the camera, I’m assuming the girl’s mother is beaming with pride. How often do you see someone so young learning how to save a life?
The video was originally featured on America’s Funniest Home Videos, where it amazed everyone who watched. Later, it spread over the internet and has melted hearts worldwide.
Since being uploaded to the Kyoot YouTube Channel, this tot-sized CPR demonstration has been viewed over half a million times!
People are amazed the baby learned the CPR techniques— but the way she checks on her little “patient” truly takes the cake. Comments on the video read:
“Omg! She even asks if he’s okay beforehand! And checks his breathing!”
“this baby could save many lives in the future”

The next time you think your child may be too young to learn something new, let this video serve as a reminder. When they put their mind to it, they can accomplish anything they choose!
