Roll Call! Meet the Characters Featured in “The Baby-Sitters Club”
With a little over a week until The Baby-Sitters Club premieres on Netflix, we wanted to introduce you to your soon to be new friends, Kristy, Mary Anne, Claudia, Stacey and Dawn. Below, you will find characters descriptions for each character and the actress who will be playing the character.
KRISTY THOMAS (Sophie Grace): Kristy is smart, energetic, and enjoys being the leader of the group. When her single mom struggles to find a last-minute baby-sitter, Kristy comes up with the idea to start a baby-sitting club — a much-needed business in the community — and brings her pals on board.
MARY ANNE SPIER (Malia Baker): Mary Anne has been Kristy’s best friend since birth. She lost her mom to cancer when she was only 18 months old, and is being raised by her caring but sometimes over-protective dad. She is a shy dreamer with a benevolent, warm, and accepting nature.
CLAUDIA KISHI (Momona Tamada): Claudia is the coolest and trendiest of the group, loves art, and has the most fashionable wardrobe. She’s a friend and neighbor to Kristy and Mary Anne. She’s a budding artist who often has her head in the clouds, and can get easily distracted — especially during school.
STACEY MCGILL (Shay Rudolph): Stacey is a recent transplant from New York City who’s fashionable, super smart, organized, and tech-savvy. She is best friends with Claudia.
DAWN SCHAFER (Xochitl Gomez-Deines): A confident and cool California native free spirit, Dawn is a passionate young activist who moves from California to her mother’s hometown of Stoneybrook after her parents’ divorce. To Kristy’s initial dismay, she quickly bonds with Mary Anne.
The show will premiere on Netflix on July 3! Make sure to check the site next week for our review of the new series.
