The biggest issue I see in this is the lack of consent from the mother (as opposed to the woman acting as a wet nurse.) To have someone breast feed your baby and you don't know if they are a coffee drinker, chocolate eater, alcohol consumer, etc. is plain wrong. Not to mention not knowing if the woman had any communicable diseases, even a cold.
When people consent to a wet nurse they, I'm sure, are informed of all these things. And the wet nurse is informed as to whether the child has any allergies to things like chocolate, etc. It sounds like the daycare provider did not act out of malice but just plain ignorance.
