"It’s sweet but not cloying, smart but not cynical, full-hearted and funny..."

—

The New York Times

"A sweet and faithful, if not unmodern, new adaptation..."

—

Stuff

"It maintains a contemporary feel without losing the old-fashioned charm at its heart."

—

The Guardian

"It’s sweet, and honest, and nice, in a way that feels just as refreshing as the girls’ old-fashioned business model."

—

Rolling Stone

"This latest adaptation brings The Baby-Sitters Club into the modern era without sacrificing the wholesome ideals at its core."

—

Entertainment Weekly

"While TV shows for adults routinely feature characters making bad decisions without reflection or remorse, the tweens in this reboot work through their pain and learn from their shortcomings. Witnessing this kind of self-growth is inspirational, whether the viewer is a kid or an adult."

—

A.V. Club

"Isn’t an anachronism so much as a tonic. ... The show strikes a shrewd balance between earnestness and humor, freshness and nostalgia, fidelity to Martin’s beloved characters and awareness of how much has changed since her books dominated girl culture at the end of the 20th century."

—

Time Magazine

"The most comforting, delightful stretch of viewing I’ve had in the last few months."

—

Vulture

"Watching a group of intrepid young women start a business, deal with irresponsible teens, and get their homework done is a level of responsibility to which we should all aspire."

—

IndieWire

"The Baby-Sitters Club is not a heavy show — quite the opposite — but its attention to these issues is very thoughtful and reveals just how compassionate the baby-sitters are. The kids are all right indeed."
