UK: Nursery worker convicted of abusing 21 babies

Article here. And in Australia they're trying to prohibit men from being daycare workers. Excerpt:

'A 22-year-old nursery worker has been convicted of abusing 21 babies, including kicking one little boy in the face and stepping on his shoulder.

Roksana Lecka, from Hounslow, west London, admitted seven counts of cruelty to a person under the age of 16 and was found guilty of another 14 by a jury at Kingston Crown Court, the Metropolitan Police said.

Her crimes were discovered in June last year after she was sent home for pinching a number of children and appearing "flustered" at the Riverside Nursery in Twickenham, south-west London, the Crown Prosecution Service said.

Solicitor Jemma Till from Irwin Mitchell said the families involved had been "traumatised".

Lecka will be sentenced at Kingston Crown Court on 26 September.

Detectives from the Met Police went through CCTV from the nursery that showed her pinching and scratching children under their clothes on their arms, legs and stomachs.'
