A SEVEN week old baby and her three-year-old sister had to be rescued by firefighters after becoming trapped in their house.
Crews from Canvey were called to the home in Furtherwick Road, Canvey, at around 9am on Thursday.
The children’s mum had popped out of the house for only a second when the wind blew the door shut behind her.
Sub Officer Kevin Hercock said they were able to get into the house within ten minutes and found the children safe and sound.
He added: “The little girl was up at the window and we kept her calm, I think she was more interested in the fire engine.”
