Jennifer Zamparelli narrowly avoided a trip to hospital after her daughter fell off a scooter and almost whacked her head on the ground.
The 2FM host told how she and her husband Lauterio were trying to teach their first born how to ride when she was two-and-a-half while out for a walk in Marlay Park in Dublin.
But the pair forgot to put a helmet on Florence, who is now six.
Her quick-thinking dad rushed to grab her before she whacked her head off the ground in the park.
Speaking on her 2FM show on Friday morning, Jennifer said: “I remember when Florence was two-and-a-half, somebody threw a scooter in a bush.
"Obviously they had done away with it so it wasn’t the greatest scooter. So we took it to the park with Florence to teach her to scoot.
“She never wants to walk anyway, so let’s teach her to scoot. All the kids are on scooters, God we are great parents plus we’re recycling.
“She went so fast, I never saw Lau run as fast to save our child’s life because she clipped a stone and went flying and he grabbed her just before she whacked her head off the ground and probably would’ve ended up in A&E.”
Jennifer shared the footage on Instagram saying: “Talking parenting fails on air today. Here’s one of our parenting fails caught on camera. First time scoot no helmet nearly ended up in A&E. Side note – epic save by @zampers1.”
