Family A: The Greens
Father: Ethan Green, writer of a hit sci-fi television series, Psychic Wars. "Stay at home" but often on long video calls in his office.
Mother: Laura Green, Doctor, often works long hours but is paid well. Wants to be around more, and does what she can, but her work calls her a lot.
Kids: Bryan, age 4, and Mina, 16 months.
Issues: Bryan lacks self-esteem, is nervous and shy.
Robot Nanny Form: Ted, a giant teddy bear. Calm and friendly, to help Bryan break out of his shell.
-------------------------------------------
Family B: The Vernes
Father: Jacob Verne, advertising executive. Busy often, kind of aggressive, a bit of a disciplinarian who isn't helping his kids.
Mother: Cleo Verne, a major actress in the soap opera Sunset Bay. Often filming her scenes, somewhat passive.
Kids: Shaun, age 3, and Caleb, 22 months.
Issues: Shaun and Caleb are turning out to be their father's sons in many respects, their tempers being the biggest one. Their tantrums are legendary. In addition, Shaun rejects the potty outright, despite his future preschool requiring, at the very least, training pants.
Robot Nanny Form: Rex, a dinosaur. Humorous and light-hearted to stop tantrums from happening in the first place, and empathetic and kind for when they're unavoidable and they need to let off some steam.
------------------------------------------
Family C: The Smiths
Father: Leo Smith, R&B singer who's often touring.
Mother: Nicole Smith, a talk show host who's often recording. They both love their daughters, they're just often busy.
Kids: Nia, age 2, and Rita, 11 months.
Issues: Nia's becoming bossy and demanding, with "NO" becoming a staple word in her vocabulary. She's not a tantrum-thrower, but she is whiny and complains often. "Don't like!" and "Not gonna!" and "Me do it!" and "Don't wanna!", etc etc. are all she ever seems to say.
Robot Nanny Form: Lupe, a wolf. Firm, but gently so, always with an explanation for why x has to happen, or why y can't happen.
