The Mirror reports that social services paid a visit to the child’s family after the video was posted on YouTube on Sunday.
The paper reported that the child’s grandfather said there was mesh over the window, which doesn’t appear on the video, but which appears to have since been installed.
Local fire chief Wellington Amaral said: “Parents should always have children in their sight to be able to guarantee their safety.
“Children want to explore the world when they begin to walk and their parents should always make access to windows and other dangerous places difficult.”
Social service chief Leonardo Urcini said the child was being looked after at the time by a carer.
“We went to see the family and spoke with the child’s grandfather who is the owner of the flat,” he said. “He said that at the moment the incident happened he wasn’t at home and the child was being cared for by a domestic worker.”
The family has received a warning over the incident.
