A baby girl has died after being struck by the family car outside her home.

Baby Alice Lambert was killed on June 25 in Aitkenvale in Townsville as the family were getting ready to leave for a holiday. 

The toddler had just began walking when she was 'hit' by the family car.

Alice died shortly after arriving at Townsville University Hospital.

The infant has been remembered by family and friends as a 'vibrant, beautiful girl' with an 'angelic smile'.

'[Alice] had just started walking and taking on her curiosity of the world around her,' family friend Rochelle Magro wrote on a GoFundMe she set up.

'Her mum and dad are such devoted and loving parents to all three children and really make their little family such a desired unit of love.'

Ms Magro set up the donations page to help Mr Lambert and his wife Maxine with 'financial hurdles' as well as funeral costs.

'Now they have to do the most indescribable thing of burying their daughter,' she said.
