The Day-Care Threat is a Star Tribune series examining the sharp rise in child-care deaths in Minnesota during the past five years. Reporters reviewed hundreds of death certificates, licensing documents and court records that reveal patterns of life-threatening safety violations.
May 6: Most deaths involved children who were sleeping, often in conditions that violated safe-sleep guidelines.
May 20: At overcrowded day cares, the risks mount.
May 30: Important safety records are often inaccessible to parents.
July 15: Home-based child care has looser regulations than center-based care, resulting in increased risks to children.
Today: How Kansas made child care safer.
