I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'attack one doesn't offer human milk' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this definition defines the answer.

'minder of child facing' is the wordplay.
'minder' becomes 'nanny' (I've seen this before).
'of child' becomes 'goat' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should believe this answer much more).
'facing' says to put letters next to each other.
'nanny'+'goat'='NANNY-GOAT'

Can you help me to learn more?
