A young mother says she feels betrayed after seeing video footage of her nanny throwing her nine-month-old daughter face down into a cot and roughly carrying her around by the arm and leg.
"It is the worst thing a mother can go through. It is the worst thing parents can go through. I don't wish it on my worst enemies‚" she told TimesLIVE.
The family‚ who is not being named for legal reasons‚ used an app to set up camera monitoring.
After catching their nanny assaulting their daughter‚ they laid complaints at the police and social welfare offices.
The nanny was arrested and was charged with attempted murder last week‚ the mother said. She was expected to appear in court again in October.
The mother said she became suspicious after returning home from work one day to find her infant daughter with bruises.
"I can't remember the date. It was somewhere at the end of July and I noticed marks on the balls of her feet. They were really red and sore‚" she said.
She described herself as a "trusting" and "non-sceptical" person who was probably a little "naïve" to believe that their nanny would do something like that.
But after the initial incident‚ she came home one day to find bruises on her baby's neck and shoulders. She was told she fell out of her walking ring.
