Babysitter caught on camera repeatedly hitting eight-week-old tot because she wouldn't stop crying

A babysitter was caught on camera repeatedly hitting an eight-week-old tot because she would not stop crying.



Nguyen Thi Han, 51, was arrested after security cameras recorded her smacking the infant across the head, face, back and bottom.



The shocking footage also shows Han, who had been hired as a maid by the family two months ago, violently shaking the baby while her parents were out.



At one point she is seen roughly throwing the terrified infant into the air and catching her, again and again, and screaming at her to stop crying.



The baby's parents installed the cameras at their home, in Phy Ly, in northern Vietnam's Ha Nam Province, after noticing the baby's face was unusually red and she was sobbing in her sleep.



Ngoc Phuong, the baby's mother, contacted police as soon as she saw the footage and officers arrested Han.
