In recent times, the media has been awash with the news of one sad story of how a nanny treated a child/children or the other.
A house help in Nairobi was on Friday caught on camera breastfeeding her employer’s nine-month-old baby. According to Nairobinews.co.ke, the house help, Grace Mwikali Mwema, took up the house help job barely two days when she was spotted on a hidden camera in the living room breastfeeding the baby.
In the video, she is seen offering the baby her right breast first. She then shifts the baby to the left breast. But throughout the episode, the baby is resistant to suckling the househelp’s breasts. Eventually, the frustrated househelp gives up on the unnatural act and lets the baby play.
The hidden camera was connected to the phone of the baby’s mother, so she saw the whole incident at work while it was ongoing. The mother of the baby made it known how she could not believe her eyes as she watched the live feed from the nanny camera on her smart phone while at work. NairobiNews adds that what was insulting was the response the house help gave when confronted with the video. The house help claimed that the baby was touching her breasts.
The employer says she was stiff worried that her baby could have been infected by the house help during the bizarre episode, so she quickly took the lady for a medical check-up. To her relief, the lady tested negative for HIV and Hepatitis, both of which can be transmitted through breastfeeding.
The mother said:
“She had not left a suckling baby behind, nor aborted to justify why she was breastfeeding. The doctor confirmed this. Her motive was sexual. My child was a victim.”
The baby’s mother said she bought a nanny cam for Sh10, 000 and installed it in the living room as a precaution to see what house helps do when she is not around.
“If you want to watch it live, you have to have wifi in your house and be using a smartphone… I saw this act in real time, therefore I acted fast… she denied it when we asked her about it. It is until we told her we have a camera that she admitted,” added the mother in a Facebook posting.
The house help, who is also a mother to a three-year-old child, was arrested and is in police custody awaiting trial. Watch the video below:
