Video camera footage from the day care center, at 7195 S. Redwood Road, reportedly shows the child playing with a bean bag chair at about noon, then crawling underneath it. Sgt. Joe Monson, WJPD, confirmed that after the toddler climbed under the child-sized bean bag chair, a woman who worked at the facility sat on the chair, not knowing the boy was trapped beneath. “We are now able to confirm that,” Monson said. “It appears to be just a tragic accident. An adult sat on the bean bag chair, not knowing.” Staffers estimated the child was underneath the chair for 10 to 15 minutes before he was discovered, unconscious and not breathing. Police: Boy's death under daycare beanbag chair accidental
SALT LAKE CITY – Utah police say they believe a toddler accidently suffocated under a bean bag chair after a day care worker sat on it. Sgt. Joe Monson said Tuesday investigators came to the determination after reviewing a video recording and interviewing witnesses, but the investigation is still open. Monson says prosecutors will review the case after the investigation is complete to determine if any criminal charges are warranted. He says the child crawled underneath the chair Sept. 8, and the worker sat down later to read to the other kids without being aware the toddler was underneath.

The child suffocated, according to Fox 13 in Utah. He would have turned 2 on Sept. 17. The accident happened Thursday at the West Jordan Child Center in West Jordan, about 20 minutes south of Salt Lake City. /gn73gs8BmG— FOX 13 News Utah (@fox13) September 10, 2016 The boy, Leonardo Sanchez, crawled under the beanbag chair before the day care employee sat down to read to the rest of the children. The boy was taken to a hospital after he was found. He was declared brain dead and later died. "It just baffles me, makes me wonder, she must not have felt him, she must not have heard him," the boy's mother, Danielle Sanchez, told Fox 13. Police are investigating video from the center. The employee is not facing any charges yet. The boy's family wants to work to ban beanbag chairs from child care facilities, according to Time.
"This can't happen to anyone else," the boy's father, Dan Sanchez, told Time. "This can't be OK." The day care center issued a statement to Fox 13 saying it regrets Leonardo's "tragic death." "No words adequately describe the depth of the sorrow we feel," the statement said, according to Fox. "And, of course, we do not pretend to understand how devastating this is for the family."

Safe sleep practices help reduce the risk of sudden unexpected infant deaths (SUIDs). Facilities should develop a written policy describing the practices to be used to promote safe sleep for infants. The policy should explain that these practices aim to reduce the risk of SUIDs, including sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS), suffocation and other deaths that may occur when an infant is in a crib or asleep. About 3,500 SUIDs occurred in the U.S. in 2014 (1). All staff, parents/guardians, volunteers and others approved to enter rooms where infants are cared for should receive a copy of the Safe Sleep Policy and additional educational information and training on the importance of consistent use of safe sleep policies and practices before they are allowed to care for infants (i.e., first day as an employee/volunteer/subsitute). Documentation that training has occurred and that these individuals have received and reviewed the written policy before they care for children should be kept on file.
Additional educational materials can be found at https://www.nichd.nih.gov/sts/materials/Pages/default.aspx. All staff, parents/guardians, volunteers and others who care for infants in the child care setting should follow these required safe sleep practices as recommended by the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) (2): The lighting in the room must allow the caregiver/teacher to see each infant’s face, to view the color of the infant’s skin, and to check on the infant’s breathing and placement of the pacifier (if used).A caregiver/teacher trained in safe sleep practices and approved to care for infants should be present in each room at all times where there is an infant. This caregiver/teacher should remain alert and should actively supervise sleeping infants in an ongoing manner. Also, the caregiver/teacher should check to ensure that the infant’s head remains uncovered and re-adjust clothing as needed.The construction and use of sleeping rooms for infants separate from the infant group room is not recommended due to the need for direct supervision.
In situations where there are existing facilities with separate sleeping rooms, facilities have a plan to modify room assignments and/or practices to eliminate placing infants to sleep in separate rooms.Facilities should follow the current recommendation of the AAP about pacifier use (2). If pacifiers are allowed, facilities should have a written policy that describes relevant procedures and guidelines. Pacifier use outside of a crib in rooms and programs where there are mobile infants or toddlers is not recommended. The facilty should encourage, provide arrangements for, and support breastfeeding. Breastfeeing or feeding an infant with their mother's expressed breast milk is also associated with a reduced risk of sleep-related infant deaths (2). Despite the decrease in deaths attributed to sleeping practices and the decreased frequency of prone (tummy) infant sleep positioning over the past two decades, some caregivers/teachers continue to place infants to sleep in positions or environments that are not safe.
Most sleep-related deaths in child care facilities occur in the first day or first week that an infant starts attending a child care program (4). Many of these deaths appear to be associated with prone positioning, especially when the infant is unaccustomed to being placed in that position (2). Training that includes observations and addresses barriers to changing caregiver/teacher practices would be most effective. Use of safe sleep policies, continued education of parents/guardians, expanded training efforts for child care professionals, statewide regulations and mandates, and increased monitoring and observation of intants while they are sleeping are critical to reduce the risk of SUIDs in child care (2). Infants who are cared for by adults other than their parent/guardian or primary caregiver/teacher are at increased risk of SUID (4,5). Recent research and demonstration projects (6,7) have revealed that: Background: Deaths of infants who are asleep in child care may be under-reported because of the lack of consistency in training and regulating death scene investigations and determining and reporting cause of death.
