And then out of nowhere a car crashes through the store window, knocking over the stroller, her baby still inside.
Closed circuit TVs show the impact of the car plowing through shelves, and the baby stroller toppled to the ground.
The mother pulls her baby from the stroller - amazingly, unharmed.
One witness, Morgan Barta said: "Everybody just ran from the streets. People were coming out. There were sirens everywhere, and everyone ran to try and help."
Mr Sam Galouzis, an owner of a nearby barber shop said the accident happened at 3.30pm. He said: "Peak hour, and no one got hurt. That is just amazing."
The driver, stunned, sat outside the building after the accident.
Police said he tested negative for alcohol. Witnesses say he veered off the road to avoid hitting another car.
