Det Ch Insp Paul Hughes, of Cheshire Police, said: “As part of ongoing inquiries, the healthcare professional was today re-arrested on suspicion of murder in relation to the deaths of eight babies and the attempted murder of nine babies.
“The woman is currently in custody helping officers with their inquiries.”
