NYC Nanny Arrested After Beating 3 Kids, Abuse Caught On Video: NYPD

NEW YORK CITY — A New York City nanny accused of assaulting three children she was babysitting last month has been arrested, police announced Wednesday.

La’Keysha Jackson, 24, has been charged with two counts of assault in the second degree and three counts of endangering the welfare of a child.

The abuse was caught on video, according to police and multiple media reports.

Geraldine Jaramillo, the children's mother, told the New York Post and PIX11 they discovered that Jackson had been striking the children — ages 6, 4 and 2 — with a belt through a Nest security camera.

Jackson had been hired as a babysitter via a contractor paid for by the city’s Administration for Children’s Services. She had been working for the family in the Bronx for a year before the abuse was discovered, Patch previously reported.

In early May, the children’s grandparents allegedly witnessed Jackson hitting the two eldest children with a belt 58 times inside the family's Bronx apartment.

Additional camera footage revealed other incidents of abuse, including the 2-year-old being slammed into a bed, and other physical and verbal abuse, according to PIX11.

The family, earlier this month, told PIX11 that they are filing a Notice of Claim with the city and ACS.

ACS a previously said in a statement that "the provider terminated the employee and, with the NYPD, we are investigating this incident.
