A one-year-old child was found dead with neck trauma in a Queens apartment building on Tuesday night, sources said.

The child, whose gender was not immediately available, was pronounced dead at a hospital.

A neighbor who said he sometimes cared for the toddler claimed the mother had recently lost her job and was considering moving to China.

“Last time we saw the baby was almost a month ago,” Prabina Shilpakar said. “[The mom] said she can take care of the baby herself, since she lost her job.”

The 33-year-old mother was taken to the 110th Precinct station house where she was being questioned late Tuesday, sources said.

The medical examiner will determine the cause of death.

It was not clear late Tuesday whether any criminality was involved in the incident.
