...based on the novel The Nanny Diaries, by Emma McLaughlin and Nicola Kraus.

In Africa they have the saying, it takes a village to raise a child. But for the tribe of the upper-eastside 

of Manhattan, it takes just one person. The nanny. 

the nanny diaries

“The Nanny Diaries” tells the story of the emotional and often humorous journey of Annie Braddock, 
a young woman from a working-class neighborhood in New Jersey, struggling to understand her place 
in the world. Fresh out of college, she gets tremendous pressure from her nurse mother to find a 
respectable position in the business world although Annie would prefer to trade in her blackberry for an 
anthropologist's field diary. Through a serendipitous meeting, Annie ends up in the elite and ritualistic 
culture of Manhattan's Upper East Side -- as remote from Annie's suburban New Jersey upbringing as 
life in an Amazon tribal village. Choosing to duck out of real life, Annie accepts the position as a nanny 
for a wealthy family, referred to as simply "the X's." She quickly learns that life is not very rosy on the 
other side of the tax bracket, as she must cater to the every whim of Mrs. X and her precocious son 
Grayer, while attempting to avoid the formidable Mr. X. Life becomes even more complicated when 
Annie falls for a gorgeous neighbor of the X’s who she nicknames Harvard Hottie, and is forced to 
explore what she wants to do with her life.
