Westwood Nanny Sentenced to Year in Jail for Taking Nude Photos of Young Boys in Her Care

Authorities said 199 pictures of naked children were found on the nanny's phone.

A Westwood nanny was sentenced to a year in jail Friday, for taking naked pictures of three boys in her care, authorities said.

Matilde Flores, 48, took care of a 6-year-old boy and his two 3-year-old brothers at their home in Westwood for two years, according to Los Angeles City Attorney Mike Feuer's office.

According to prosecutors, in December 2013 Flores started taking naked photos of the boys secretly in a bathroom in their home.

After one of the boys told their parents "Flores had taken naked photos of them on her phone," their father found such photos on the phone and both parents called police, a spokesperson for Feuer said in a statement.

Police arrested Flores on June 10, 2016, and found 199 photos of naked children on her phone, according to Feuer's office.

Flores was sentenced to one year in jail, five years probation, and is prohibited "from being alone with any minor children or performing any work with minors," a spokesperson for Feuer said in a statement. She must also register as a sex offender.

Flores had entered a no contest plea to possession of child pornography and two counts of child annoying, according to Feuer’s office.

A restraining order was granted for the victims, and will last 10 years.
