London - Former Spice Girl Geri Halliwell has reported a childminder to the police.

It is reported that the singer found bruises on the arm of her three-month old daughter, Bluebell, after leaving her with a temporary nanny.

Police told the News Of The World that they had received "an allegation of abuse" and that they were investigating.

A Metropolitan Police spokesperson said: "We emphasise that the allegations of abuse are of a physical and not sexual nature."

Geri, 34, was staying with friends at a luxury cottage in Hampshire when the allegation was made.

An insider said: "Geri has barely let Bluebell out of her sight since the birth. Then she leaves her with someone and all hell breaks loose."

Geri's personal assistant issued a statement saying: "Bluebell is now happy and well and there are no further concerns for her welfare." - Ananova.com
