“No medical training whatsoever; it was just one of those things where you watch all this TV, and you just put it into practice right now. The baby started crying, and the mom got calm, and I told them everything was going to be fine and that the worst was over.”

The mother and daughter received afterbirth care and were comfortable and healthy.

The security guard, who is a father of two stated that he now feels like he has a third child after assisting in the delivery of the elevator baby.
