Hi,
This is not a full answer to your question, but a cut and pasted part of an old answer I have previously given , as I thought you may find the flow chart handy - if you don't already have one.
Follow organisational procedures.
Look at your setting's policies and procedures and you will see what policies your setting has drawn up and why; you will have procedures to carry out
Your local area/authority - could have different policies and procedures to other areas or counties so you need to check/ask your manager. Normally you will have a telephone number (of a duty officer) to contact if you are in any doubt.
The link below should take you to the Blue flow Chart, if not use your search engine and look for:
What to do if you're worried a child is being abused and click on the site for 'A Flow chart for referral.'

If you display this poster and the telephone number/person you need to contact - that can be one of the procedures you carry out to safe guard children.
