Yesterday I got this email from Lauren Kurnit, a casting associate for the unscripted series “Nanny 911.” They are currently
looking to cast families in the Brooklyn area.
We
are essentially looking for families who really want or need the
opportunity to spend three or four days working on bettering their
lives with our nanny specialist. Perhaps mom and dad don’t know how to
deal with the public tantrums or wish that they could get through a
meal without a meltdown; our nanny specialist will work with them to
implement structure and create harmony in the home. As we all know,
child rearing doesn’t come with a manual and sometimes a little bit of
outside help is all a family needs.
Please feel free to pass
this information and the flyer (attached) on to any families (single or
two-parent) that you think might be interested. You can feel free to
post it, email it to a mailing list or hand it out – whatever is
easiest for you!Anyone who is interested in finding out more about the show can feel free to contact me via email (lauren.nanny911@yahoo.com) or 212-404-1842. We also have a website with further information: www.nanny911casting.wordpress.com.
Alternately, interested families can send an email with the following information:
1. Name
2. Address and contact
information
3.
A brief description of the family members. They should be sure to note
the out of control kids and give us examples of bad behavior /why they
need a nanny specialist.
4. A list of the issues the family would like resolved (potty training, tantrums, etc.)
5. Pictures of the family and the home
6. Whether you own or rent your homeAny family who makes it on the show receives $10,000. The length of filming varies between three and four days.
Ten thousand bucks to exploit your children on national TV.
