The door to the room the kids sleep in appears and disappears throughout the movie. Sometimes there is a door, other times there is no door, just a plain entryway into the room.

User Reviews

Cute comedy about foster kids finding a home

This cute feel good family movie involves a couple of foster kids who while waiting for a family to adopt them are taken in by a cop. He meets a lady who has just been laid off and hires her as a nanny.

Brittney Snow lookalike Jessy Schram is quite likable as the video game creator/nanny. Rather conveniently, the house is just a perfect looking family ready home.

Of course you can guess the outcome but it's fun to see the family bond come together. It avoids being painful and has some laughs along the way and that's not easy. Also the kids don't get annoying.

Worth one watch.
