A cruel nanny was caught on camera abusing a couple's six-day-old baby boy and throwing him around 'like a toy'. The 26-year-old father, Mr Tian, came to the shocking discovery last week while watching security footage on his phone, he told police in China.

The domestic worker, 50, has been accused of slapping, hitting and throwing the newborn child. Mr Tian's wife sent the nanny cam footage to several influential Chinese bloggers on popular messaging platform WeChat. The boy's mother claimed her nanny had handled her child violently while looking after him at their home in the city of Shahe in northern China's Hebei province.
