A woman in Taiwan was shocked to learn that her nanny was drinking her breastmilk.
The mum of two had hired a nanny to help her look after her new baby. One day she realised that one of the bottles containing her breastmilk was empty, even though she knew her daughter wouldn’t have consumed that much milk.
She asked her nanny where it had all gone and she confirmed that she had, in fact, finished the bottle herself.
According to The Irish Mirror, the mother gave the nanny a warning and said that, in future, if there was any leftover milk from her daughter’s feed, that it should be used for her son instead of being drank by herself.
The nanny continued working for the family but the mother, once again, began to get suspicious that she was still drinking the breastmilk. She checked the family CCTV to confirm her theory and it showed the nanny drinking directly from the bottle while the daughter was asleep.
When confronted about her actions she complained that the previous family she worked for used to let her drink the milk and even take home the leftovers. She then also accused the mother of being stingy and mean for not sharing.
The local social welfare department weren’t able to take action against the nanny as it was seen as ‘unprofessional’ as opposed to ‘misconduct’.
