An influencer has shared a video of the shocking moment her daughter called 911 and told her her “mother had died.”
Melbourne resident Iva Marra shared footage on Instagram on Wednesday of her six-year-old daughter Milana being caught on camera secretly dialing 000.
The throwback video shows Milana sitting at home with her four-year-old brother Stefan, holding the phone to his ear before his older sister grabs it from his hands.
Then you hear her say, ’10:45. My mother died. My mother died.’
She looks at the phone and immediately asks, “Can I hang up? I have a meeting,” before abruptly ending the call.
The footage then shows Iva confronting Milana and asking her who she was on the phone with and what she had said.
After confirming that she told the ambulance that her mother had died, Milana starts to cry and tells them that she wanted to be a doctor.
She says with tears in her eyes, ‘I wanted to learn more about the police and what they do, I mean doctors, because how do I know how to be a doctor? I don’t know how to be a doctor when I grow up!’

Iva shared the clip on Instagram, warning her fans not to be fooled by Milana’s “crocodile tears” as she recalled the awkward phone call.
The Yummy Mummies star, who shares children with husband Steven Joe Marra, said it was an old video because she “went back in time” to reshare the blunder.
Fans’ reactions to the footage were mixed. Some were shocked that she had wasted the ambulance service’s time and wanted to know if they had been called.
Someone wrote: ‘Oh dear, someone needs to learn how important the emergency services are and how serious it is to joke around and waste your time. I think she was just playing and being curious. But it’s still not right.’
‘Poor you @iva.marra I hope she learned her lesson,’ said another.

When a fan asked what happened next, Iva said she “screamed” and assured them that Milana had never jokingly called 000 since then.
Many fans defended Iva for seeing the humor in the situation and assured her that it is perfectly normal for children to try to call emergency services.
One wrote: ‘She deserves an Oscar for the theatrical reaction she gave you,’ while another said: ‘I mean, the initiative to teach doctors is there! Girls reporting deaths and organizing meetings, she has the skills.’
“Forget the haters. She’s not the first kid and she definitely won’t be the last kid to call 000. She knows what 000 stands for now and I know she won’t do it again,” wrote a third.
A fourth gave a detailed account: ‘I’ve lost count of the number of times I called 911 as a child on the one night when she at least had the confidence to talk to them. All I did was call repeatedly and hang up. Kids.’
And another joked: ’21st birthday footage lol or maybe med school graduation footage!!’
