Story
Claire Barthel, a business woman, lives happily with her family until Peyton Flanders appears in her life, which Claire and her husband hire to take care of the child. Behind the attention of an attentive and courteous nanny, an insidious avenger is hiding. Caring and love for the baby for Peyton takes on the character of revenge for the suicide of her husband, a lustful gynecologist, for the miscarriage that happened after that. The failed mother unleashes all her anger on the Barthel family, believing that she has the right to punish them, and raise the baby so that he perceives her as a mother. She breastfeeds her youngest child so that he no longer perceives the milk of a real mother. The eldest girl trusts her secrets.
