It took only an hour for the silent alarm to be triggered after Nanjing Children's Welfare Institution opened its "safe haven" for abandoned babies on Tuesday.
Jin Jiangying, the nurse on duty, rushed to the small but secure building and found a newborn boy wrapped in a colorful blanket.
He had been left in a crib provided at the haven along with feeding bottles, milk powder, diapers and clothing.
