The young girl is removed from her coffin in the church in Aurora, Zamboanga del Sur, in the Philippines.
After she started breathing again, her father lifted her out of the coffin and took her to hospital.
She was pronounced dead on Saturday after being taken to hospital the day before suffering from a fever for several days
Inspector Heidil Teelan told the Philippines Star: "During that time, the attending clinic personnel and physician confirmed that the young patient had no more pulse and was clinically dead last Saturday morning about 9am."
It was only when one of her parents' neighbours removed the lid of the coffin to arrange the girl's remains that she saw the three-year-old move.
Teelan added: "We really can not make confirmation on the status of the girl but based on the observation of the police personnel I deployed it appeared the girl remained in a state of comatose in their house."
After being lifted out of the coffin she was given water and taken to the hospital before returning home with her parents.
