Nursery worker caught on CCTV as she mistreated 24 babies, court hears
A Montessori nursery worker was caught on CCTV pinching, punching and grabbing babies as she "badly treated" 24 children in her care, a court has heard.
Roksana Lecka, 22, allegedly assaulted or ill-treated 23 of the alleged victims over a six month period while working at the Riverside Nursery in Twickenham Green, southwest London. The nursery, which charged parents up to £1,900 a month to look after children aged between 18 months and two years, follows the Montessori method of teaching, involving allowing youngsters to pursue their natural interests and activities.
The jury heard there were no concerns raised when Lecka applied for a job, with references from another nursery and two families for whom she had babysat. But prosecutor Tracy Ayling KC said her behaviour on one day, when she was sent home from work to rest after being seen acting "almost as if she was in a daze.
