The authors report on the detection of 2 new probable protostellar objects in the Large Magellanic Cloud associated with the radio optical nebulae N 160 A and N 105 A. Both sources were found near H2O masers. 1.25 - 20 μm photometric data were obtained on N 160 A IR. It is suggested that the infrared emission is due to the combination of an extended free-free component seen at short wavelengths and in the Brackett γ line and a compact source which consists of a hot (450K) core and a dense optically thick cold envelope (65K). This object is shown to be very similar to galactic protostellar objects like W 51-IRS 2. The near infrared data obtained on N 105 A are consistent with a similar interpretation.
