Abstract: The present invention solves a possible contributing cause of Sudden Infant Death Syndrome. A body support pad has a support portion and a pillow portion. The support portion is removably connected to the pillow portion. The pillow portion provides ventilation to the infant. The pillow portion has a thin outer sheet permeable to the passage of air. The pillow portion also keeps the head of the infant in healthy repose. The interior of the pillow is subdivided into an upper portion containing a porous foam material and a lower portion containing an air pocket. An air pump supplies air to the air pocket to thereby supply air to the nose and mouth of the infant.
