Accidental infant death is the loss of a baby or young child as the result of an unintentional injury or accident, rather than an illness or medical condition. These heartbreaking losses can happen suddenly and without warning.

This page is a place to honor babies and families affected by accidental loss, including losses caused by drowning, falls, motor-vehicle accidents, accidental poisoning, burns/scalds, and other unintentional injuries. 

Every story is unique, but every loss leaves behind a family who loved deeply and never expected to say goodbye. Your baby is loved, their life matters, and their story deserves to be remembered. Though their time was far too short, the love they brought into the world is lasting and real.
