KUALA LUMPUR, May 8 — Chan Yee Ling, 30, was giving her two-year-old daughter Tan Xuan Ying a bath when she saw bruises on her child’s face.
“Cosmetic concealer was used to cover up the bruises,” she said, recalling her horror on Monday after bringing her daughter home from the babysitter.
Chan said she asked the babysitter what had happened and was told that her daughter had fallen.
“I brought Xuan Ying to the doctor who said the injuries were not from a fall. The doctor advised me to lodge a police report.”
She lodged a report at Cheras police station on Tuesday morning and took her daughter to the hospital for treatment.
Chan met the 34-year-old babysitter on Facebook and hired her on March 1 to take care of Xuan Ying and her one-year-old brother for RM1,700 a month, excluding food.
The babysitter, who lives in Kuchai Lama, is married and has a four-year-old daughter.
