This is the emotional moment a tot was reunited with her dad after three months apart.

The tear-jerking video shows Aiya, who was three at the time, bursting into tears of joy when her dad Jarrod Keith, 44, walks through the door.

Jarrod Keith worked as an advanced scaffolder building mines in what is called FIFO (Fly In, Fly Out) work and had been away from his family for three months.

Jarrod, who lives in Brisbane, Australia, said: "That was a real lynchpin moment for me.

"It was the moment I decided to quit the FIFO life.

"You miss so much when you're away for four out of every five weeks.

"I've missed birthdays, engagements, weddings, all that sort of jazz, and my priorities have changed now."

After 23 years in the FIFO industry, Jarrod decided to quit his job and he now works as security officer.

He said: "My decision was based a lot on mental health and my choice to have kids.

"A lot of people are chasing the money with FIFO work, but it's pretty full on with 12-hour days and I see a lot of guys where it pays a big toll on them."

Jarrod and his wife Sara welcomed a baby boy in December 2023, so Jarrod is able to be present for his son growing up.

He said: "I get to see everything I missed with my daughter. Their first time crawling, then walking, then talking.

"It also means I can let my wife lie in on a weekend if she wants and actually help in the home.

"Hats off the mothers I say! She's been the one able to keep the house together."

The video was filmed in 2021.
