Police say they were called to the house along with St John Ambulance, but the baby had already died.
“Inquiries into the circumstances surrounding the child’s death are being undertaken. The death is being treated as suspicious,” a WA police spokesperson said.
A woman in her twenties was taken to Rockingham Hospital for treatment from the scene.
The street has been cordoned off by detectives, who have spent the morning investigating the home.
Officers said a woman has been helping police with inquiries, but they have not confirmed if it is the same woman who has been taken to hospital.
Police say anyone with information should contact Crime Stoppers.
