A flight attendant jumped into action to help a passenger deliver a baby mid-flight.

The mom went into an early and unexpected labor on a recent Frontier Airlines flight from Denver to Orlando

The airline said flight attendant Diana Giraldo calmly led the mom to the back bathroom and helped deliver the baby girl.

The plane was diverted to Pensacola, Fla., where paramedics were standing by at the gate to help.

The captain said the team, especially Giraldo, did a wonderful, "heroic" job.

The mom decided to give her new baby the middle name "Sky."
