A 2-year-old boy died after being found unresponsive at day care in Dublin last month, the Pleasanton Weekly has learned.
“This tragic incident was not criminal in nature,” Dublin Police Services Capt. Miguel Campos told the Weekly on Tuesday — the first time authorities publicly confirmed the investigation into the child care-related death.
Dublin police responded to a call about an unresponsive child at a day care center at 6351 Dublin Blvd. at 2:33 p.m. April 15, according to Campos. The captain identified the business as Brilliant Minds Academy, but the building is branded as Building Kidz of Dublin.
Arriving police officers performed CPR on the toddler. The boy was transported to a local hospital and pronounced dead there at 3:18 p.m. that day, according to Campos.
Attempts to reach Building Kidz of Dublin representatives this week have been unsuccessful, but management did make a statement on the business’s Yelp page last month.
“The Building Kidz Family is coping with a tragic event that occurred on Tuesday,” Building Kidz School partner, CRO and CFO Sanjay Gehani wrote April 16 on Yelp. “We are currently focused on supporting the immediate family and ask everyone to keep them and the passionate teachers and caregivers who dedicate their lives to the children daily in our thoughts.”
Gehani said the business closed the day after the death but reopened on April 17.
The California Department of Social Services Community Care Licensing Division has not responded for comment as of Wednesday morning.
