A heartbroken mum of a baby boy who died at a family daycare centre says she is struggling to come to terms with the sudden death of her only son. 

Riley Ma was found unresponsive at the facility in Wakerley, in Brisbane's east, around 3.30pm on Monday and couldn't be revived. 

The one-year-old appeared to be in a happy mood when he was dropped off at the centre around 7.30am.

Just hours later, Riley's father received the devastating phone call that the boy could not be saved, despite the best efforts of paramedics. 

Riley is understood to have suffered a suspected medical episode.  

His shattered mother said she cannot comprehend what has happened and is still in shock that her only son is no longer with her.  

'Me and my husband cherished our baby very much,' she told the Courier Mail.  

'He's my everything.'

The Chinese national, 36, claimed that emergency responders didn't allow her to say her final goodbyes to Riley after she rushed to the centre on Monday afternoon.

She also claimed that her husband was able to give Riley a cuddle before his body were taken away. 

'I can't drink, I can't eat, I can't sleep, I just miss my little boy,' she said.
