Detective Chief Superintendent Gareth Evans said: "This has been a frightening incident for those involved.
"Our focus throughout has been to recover the child safe and well.
"I am happy to report that this was achieved and I would like to thank our colleagues in Northamptonshire for their swift assistance.

Detective Inspector Chris Bell said: “Thankfully the child was recovered safe and well by our colleagues in Northamptonshire, after excellent early investigative work by my North Wales colleagues."
He added: "We would like to re-iterate that that this was an isolated incident and not a stranger attack.”
