NANNY GRIPED OF JOB

‘Play date’ testimony

The nanny accused of murdering two young children complained about “too much work and not enough money” the day before the slayings, according to testimony Friday.

Chelsea Andrews, who also worked as a nanny, testified that Yoselyn Ortega was acting strange on Oct. 24, 2012, when she whined on about working for the Krim family.

“When I saw her that day, in that state of mind, I did not want to schedule a play date with her because I didn’t like the way she looked,” Andrews said in Manhattan Supreme Court.

At the time, Andrews took care of a young girl who played with 6-yearold Lucia Krim and her 2year-old brother Leo — the tots Ortega stabbed to death inside their Upper West Side apartment a day later, on Oct. 25.

Testifying for the defense, Andrews said she asked Ortega what was wrong that day. “Lots of work, little money,” Ortega told her. Andrews didn’t pry because “that’s Yoselyn’s business and not mine. She is working too hard and the money is too little — find a different job.”

During Andrews’ testimony, Ortega repeatedly muttered “No” and pointed two fingers at her in disagreement.

Francisca Corniel, a pal of Ortega’s for 43 years, added that the Dominicanborn nanny looked unwell in October 2012.

“When she went to my house, I saw she had dark circles. She looked sick, she looked like she wasn’t all right,” Corniel testified. “She said she wasn’t sleeping well.”

Ortega told Corniel, 80, that she “didn’t feel good at that job, she didn’t feel comfortable.”

Meanwhile, jurors endured yet another batch of gory crime-scene photos showing Ortega drenched in blood and lying on the floor of the Krim’s bathroom — where she stacked the bodies of Lucia and Leo in the bathtub.

Ortega slashed her own throat as mom Marina Krim opened the door to discover the bloodbath.

Retired NYPD Officer Luis Sandoval was on the brink of tears as he testified about responding to the Krims’ home that evening. “I observed a lady screaming and crying,” he said about Marina Krim.

Sandoval also heard Krim’s surviving daughter Nessie — who was not home during the attack — plead, “Please, mommy, don’t cry, don’t cry.”

“I get to the apartment, and I see a lady laying on the floor,” he said. “When I got there, there were two knives next to her.”

Some jurors audibly gasped as they were shown a photo of a bloody kitchen knife next to Ortega’s body.

Ortega, who is mounting an insanity defense, faces life in prison if convicted of murder.
