When Alana Sanders, 36, suddenly went in to labor while standing in her bathroom at her Fremont, Calif., home, she had only her children Jabari, 9, and his sister Faith, 11, to help her. ... And help they did! The precocious duo didn't freak out at the sight of blood, they kept calm and relied on 911 to guide them through the process.

"My mom started screaming and then she started bleeding all over her body and then the baby came, so I called 9-1-1 for an ambulance," Jabari said yesterday. "Then my sister told my mom to lie down."

According to Faith, the 911 dispatcher instructed her on exactly what to do in order to help her mom with the delivery. After mom Alana gave birth, the dispatcher told the young child to tie a piece of yarn or string around the umbilical cord six inches from the baby's body, and she did so precisely. Faith did not even get squeamish when she also had to wipe the baby off with a clean towel.

Proud Dad Geoffrey, 35, who was at work when his wife gave birth unexpectantly says that he is very proud of his children. He also says that the kids are "much brighter than their age." Their other daughter, 2-year-old Janelle, was also not home at the time.

Alana was really taken aback by the fact that her children did not fight once during what had to be a scary ordeal for them.

The 911 dispatcher praised the brave pint-sized team for a job well done as the paramedics arrived.

The kids, on the other hand, thought the experience was pretty awesome. "Usually nothing happens every day," Faith said. "It's the same-old, same-old." Her brother Jabari thought the delivery was "cool and weird."

Alana is just grateful that her healthy 9 pound, 4 ounce baby boy Joseph was delivered safely and that her amazing children were present to lend a much-needed hand.
