A man has pleaded guilty to hitting his 4-year-old daughter over the head with a cricket bat in her home at Waratah West.

The Herald reports the little girl suffered multiple skull fractures and bruising to the brain.

Her 39-year-old father, who can't be named for legal reasons, admitted to hitting the girl three times while she slept in February this year.

Police say the man didn't show any remorse or ask about the welfare of his daughter at any stage of the investigation.
