A 10-month-old tot was left with second degree burns and may be 'scarred for life' after boiling water and bleach poured over him at a Scots nursery- while staff didn't call an ambulance.
Little Blake Nilssen suffered toppled an unattended cleaning bucket while trying to stand up at the Little Dreams Nursery in Aberdeen.

Ellie, who runs her own beauty business, dropped Blake off at 9.30am but at 3.45pm was told to collect her son as he “managed to tip a bucket of water on himself”.
Ellie, from Aberdeen, said: “They said the water had a bit of bleach in it but that was it.
“There was no urgency in their voice and they didn’t say the water was boiling.”
Ellie and partner Daryl Nilssen, a 31-year-old offshore worker, only realised things were serious on arrival at the nursery.
The mum continued: “We opened the door and heard the most horrific screaming.
“It was chilling. Then we realises it came from our
