According to investigators, the hardwood floors in the home were being replaced and a piece of subfloor that was weak due to a knot in the wood gave out when the sitter stepped on it.

An ambulance transported the injured babysitter to The Valley Hospital. The child’s father refused additional medical aid based upon the results of an on site evaluation by EMTs. UPDATE: A Village of Ridgewood Building Department official inspected the location and determined that no permit was required for the work being performed.
