A 10-year-old girl helped her mother give birth at home with some coaching from a 911 operator, NBC News affiliate KSDK reported.

Miracle Moore's mother went into labor three weeks early at their home in Jennings, Missouri, on October 22. She couldn't make it to the hospital in time, so she told her daughter to call 911.

"Hi, I think my mom is in labor," Miracle first told the dispatcher when they picked up, KSDK reported.

The dispatcher, identified as Scott Stranghoener, gave Moore a series of instructions that she then repeated to her mother. The call lasted nearly 11 minutes, as per the news outlet.

In the call, the child can be heard saying: "Don't sit on the toilet" and "Mama, they said lay on your back in the center of the bed or on the floor," while her screams can be heard in the background, KSDK reported.

At one point, Moore told the dispatcher: "She's coming! She's coming! She's here! ... Her head is here!"

After delivering the baby, the dispatcher told Moore to gently wipe off her little sister's mouth and nose, adding: "Be very careful, don't drop the baby, OK?" KSDK reported.

Paramedics then arrived and brought the new baby and her mother to a hospital for an evaluation. Both the child and mother were healthy.

Stranghoener later told KSDK: "I learned pretty quick that we had a serious situation. We have a set of protocols that we follow, and she followed all of my instructions to a 'T' and did an amazing job."

Moore's mother told KSDK that she was "thankful" her daughter was with her, adding: "It was definitely a miracle because once I had the baby, she came out, I couldn't really grab her and pick her up, and then Miracle came and she wrapped her up in a towel."

"She wiped her off and rubbed her back a little bit so she could cry," she added.

The fourth-grader told KSDK that she was "scared" during the delivery but would like to be a doctor when she grows up.
