Zach and Claire have a newborn son called Owen, they hire Vera as the baby's nanny, providing some relief to the new parents - but what led to their surrogate Liz killing herself?

What kind of parents meet a stranger at a funeral and allow her to sit in their car watching their infant while they go pay respects to the person that died? How careless and idiotic do you have to be to do this? If you&#39;re going to make a Lifetime movie about a crazed nanny, at least make it somewhat believable! These have got to be the dumbest parents I&#39;ve ever seen in my entire life! What new parent isn&#39;t sleep deprived??? That&#39;s the way it is with a a baby! When that crazy lunatic took the baby in her car to help &quot;get him to sleep&quot; and then &quot;accidentally&quot; scratched the mother&#39;s arm while battling with the mother-in-law, why didn&#39;t the mother just completely cut ties with this crazy woman? I typically don&#39;t side with the mother-in-law, but she was the only one that made sense in the movie and the only one that had a friggin brain, unless you&#39;re counting the baby.

Beware the Night Nurse

That&#39;s a real horror in terms of production, acting and the script. I think I need a therapy after watching this. Honestly, I haven&#39;t seen any movie that bad as this one and I was watching a lot (my first job was VHS and dvd rental ages ago). I started watching as a thriller, then I was googling a lot and I thought it&#39;s a comedy but it turned out to be just a nightmare of cinema industry. I am aware of b movies type kinda business but this is beyond. I truly Beliave some people tried to make it any better and frame it differently but seems like absolutely everything in here went wrong and out of control.

I presumed a criminal attorney to be discerning. Not true in this story. Claire, Vitoria Setta, hires a nanny without getting her address, phone number, names of friends, family, etc. She hands her baby over to someone she knows nothing about, because she could make the baby stop crying. This makes it appear that sleep is more important to her than the safety of her baby. Zach&#39;s, the husband played by Bryce Jones, mother with the constant &quot;I told you so&quot; was very off putting. She was almost as annoying as the baby&#39;s constant crying. Claire said after the nanny told her that she was her surrogate&#39;s, Liz, nanny when she grew up, she trusted her unquestioningly. Really! Liz never mentioned that she had a nanny, although she spoke incessantly about her horrible childhood and how her mother hated her because she was a boy. I&#39;m sure she would have mentioned having a nanny. Zach&#39;s instincts are better than Claire&#39;s, but he gives into her because he&#39;s so tired from lack of sleep due to the baby&#39;s constant crying. I didn&#39;t find this movie to be interesting at all. It was mostly about a parent&#39;s reaction to a new baby&#39;s crying. It was a bit annoying with the constant crying of the baby, and the stupidity of such well educated people. The acting is what you&#39;d expect from a Lifetime movie.

Full disclosure... I tend to enjoy Lifetime movies. They are bright, breezy, just the right amount of Cheese. Guilty pleasures. 90% of this movie is a damn Baby crying. It goes on far too long. I couldn&#39;t hit mute fast enough. This is to show the Parents are stressed out and low on sleep. Enter the Nurse... A total stranger. That tracks. Only the Sassy Grandma knows what&#39;s up. The Parents are too stupid to function. Even by Lifetime standards. On paper it sounds like a corny good time right? There&#39;s nothing fun or exciting about this movie. It&#39;s very dry. It suffers from a lifeless script that takes itself too seriously. I would recommend &quot;The Nurse&quot; (1997) instead.

It is almost an obligatory opening scene in a Lifetime film when a desperate woman is racing through a forest with someone in hot pursuit. In this film, the stakes were even greater because one of the women was carrying a baby! &quot;Beware the Night Nurse&quot; unfolded the circumstances of Claire and Zach Mitchell, a pair of successful attorneys, who are starting to raise their baby Owen. The child was born by a surrogate, Liz Chenowith, who worked as a paralegal in their law office. The character of Liz Chenowith was intriguing because she vanished early into the film after she was frightened. There is a good payoff when Liz&#39;s story is revealed and what was the source of her fear. Another strength of the film was the tension between the night nurse, Vera Ivanov, and Judy Mitchell, the formidable mother-in-law of Claire. It soon becomes apparent that with the antagonism between Vera and Judy, something has to give! The only loose end in the film was when Claire was rifling through a batch of old photos she located at the home of Liz Chenowith. One of the photos was that of a boy alongside Vera. The identity of boy was never made clear in the film. The direction was crisp with excellent location footage, especially in the cabin setting at Gravenhurst, where the race through the forest will occur. There was also good feeling in the relationship of Claire and Zach and their connection to their new baby. Little Owen was a screamer, and there was no doubt that the couple was in need of a night nanny. The only lesson to be learned was the importance of conducting a more thorough background check before hiring a night nurse!
