She had been holidaying with her family at their villa in the beach resort area of Seminyak.
Another holidaying Australian helped Janna’s dad, giving the young girl CPR before she was taken to hospital.
The Campbelltown three-year-old had already begun swimming lessons, her family told 7NEWS, warning other families that children should always be supervised near pools.
