Toddler found unresponsive in Airbnb swimming pool being treated at Orlando hospital

KISSIMMEE, Fla. – A 2-year-old is recovering at AdventHealth after her family says she fell into a pool at a Kissimmee Airbnb.

Her aunt, Gaineymarie Broadway, says she helped give the little girl CPR until paramedics could arrive.

“We began to hit our knees and start praying and seeking God’s face, and he met us there,” said Broadway.

The Osceola County Sheriff’s Office’s report on the incident says the 2-year-old’s grandmother, Connie Hicks, saw Charlotte sitting in a chair in the living room of the Airbnb, watching a video. About a half hour later, the report states, Hicks heard the video and thought Charlotte was sleeping in the chair.
