San Francisco Oakland San Jose, CA, July 30, 2026 —
An investigation is underway into the death of a 3-month-old girl at Mama Nida’s Loving Arms Childcare, a licensed childcare home located in San Francisco’s Bayview district. The infant was transported to UCSF Medical Center, where she was later pronounced dead.
While preliminary reports indicate that foul play is not suspected in the child’s death, state regulators have confirmed that two complaints concerning children’s safety were filed against the facility in 2023. The California Department of Social Services is conducting its own separate investigation into the matter.
The licensing status of Mama Nida’s Loving Arms Childcare and specific details surrounding the safety complaints were not immediately available. Further information is expected as both the local authorities and the state department continue their respective inquiries.
