A nanny-cam planted by a suspicious Brooklyn couple twice captured a baby-sitter roughing up their helpless 6-month-old daughter.
Elena Bass, 36, of Staten Island, was charged with assault and acting in a manner injurious to a child Wednesday for the twin incidents just prior to Christmas.
According to cops, the woman “violently removed” the child from a changing table in her employers’ downtown Brooklyn home — and on another occasion slammed the girl down into an armchair.
The baby’s shocked mother caught the second incident as it happened through a camera system linked to her phone.
But Bass "believes the tape isn't accurate," according to her attorney Earl Roberts.
"One of the tapes sped up at the end and the mother concurred there is a problem with the tape," Roberts said.
The baby-sitter was released on her own recognize at her arraignment and ordered to stay away from the couple and their child.
Bass didn’t respond to questions as walked out of Brooklyn Criminal Court. Her husband replied with a curt, “no comment.”
