Pennsylvania school nurse saves the day by delivering colleague’s baby at Walter S. Miller Elementary
Last Thursday was far from a typical day at Walter S. Miller Elementary School in Levittown, Pennsylvania, especially for Genevieve Peto, a reading specialist for kindergarten through fourth grade students. Little did she know that her day would take an extraordinary turn.
Peto, who was nearing her due date with her third child, began to feel off as the morning went on.
“It really wasn’t until 11:15 [a.m.] that I was like, something is really not right here,” she recalled.
It wasn’t long before someone noticed that she didn’t look well and immediately called for the school nurse. Stephanie Frisco, arrived quickly with a wheelchair to help.
But Frisco, with her sharp medical instincts, recognized that this wasn’t just a case of someone needing to go home. She could tell the baby was coming, and there was no time to waste.
“When she brought the wheelchair, she took me back and I just figured I’d be waiting for someone to come pick me and she recognized right away that you can’t wait,” Peto said.
Frisco was ready to act. Her years of medical experience had prepared her for moments like this.
“I’ve never delivered a baby before, I just have experience in a lot of the fields,” Frisco said.
Just 10 minutes after getting Peto to the nurse’s office, baby Cora was born, weighing in at 5 pounds, 4 ounces.
“The baby came out, and you know, I suctioned the mouth, and she started crying. It was the most beautiful cry I’ve ever heard,” Frisco recalled.
“I’m just so happy that she’s okay because when I think of all the things that could have gone wrong, she really was an angel, truly. We’re beyond thankful,” Peto shared, her voice filled with emotion.
For Frisco, the experience was not only an extraordinary moment in her career but also a personal story that would forever tie her to baby Cora.
“Gen definitely has a story to tell, and Cora will always have that story to tell for the rest of her life. I’m just happy I was able to be a part of it,” Frisco said.

Pa. State Trooper fatally shot during traffic stop in Chester Co., authorities say
West Caln Twp., Pa. (WPVI) — A Pennsylvania State Police Corporal was shot and killed in the line of duty in Chester County Sunday night.
Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro was joined by law enforcement officials outside of Paoli Hospital in paying tribute to Cpl. Timothy O’Connor.
Lt. Colonel George Bivens says O’Connor responded to a call to investigate an erratic driver just after 8 p.m. in Honey Brook.
O’Connor stopped that vehicle the intersection of Compass Road and Michael Road in West Caln Township.
Bivens says O’Connor made a radio call indicating the stop, but did not respond to calls to check on him.
Officers in the area immediately responded and found the situation investigators are calling murder-suicide.
Bivens says within seconds of approaching the stopped vehicle, the driver opened fire, killing O’Connor at the scene.
Investigators say the driver then got out of the vehicle and fatally shot himself.
Authorities tell Action News that officers responded to the scene when the trooper called for backup after shots were fired.
Bivens say O’Connor is a 15-year veteran of the Pennsylvania State Police.
He leaves behind a wife and young daughter.
Governor Shapiro has ordered flags to be flown at half-staff in honor of O’Connor.
Chester County District Christopher de Barrena-Sarobe says the county is assisting with the investigation.
Officials are not releasing the name of the suspect at this time, but say he is a 32-year-old man from Chester County.
They will now be investigating his background and motives, according to de Barrena-Sarobe.
Compass Road is closed between Hill and Lammey Roads as police continue with their investigation.
