A nursery worker who told her bosses she was pregnant a week after starting her new job has won £25,000 after she was asked if keeping the baby was a ‘good idea’.
Darci Topping, a qualified nursery nurse, started work at Stepping Stones Nursery in the Lancashire village of Hoddlesden in February 2020. A week later she told her line manager she was pregnant.
The 23 year old - who was on minimum wage - was then subjected to 'negative inferences' about her pregnancy by her managers, was quizzed about the baby's father and about her intention to go through with the birth.
