I was invited by Disney on an all expenses paid trip to cover The Disney Channel’s #AdventuresInBabysitting. All opinions are my own.
I am so happy to announce this super fun movie that is coming to The Disney Channel, Adventures In Babysitting! It will premiere on June 24th at 8 PM EDT!
“”Adventures in Babysitting,” unfolds when Jenny Parker (Sabrina Carpenter) and Lola Perez (Sofia Carson), two teen girls with distinctly different personalities, each interview for a coveted photography internship and accidently swap phones. When the Anderson family calls Jenny’s phone looking for a last-minute babysitter, audacious Lola, in need of some extra cash, picks up and nominates herself. Meanwhile, dependable Jenny is already set to babysit the Cooper family for the evening. Unfortunately, Lola’s first attempt at babysitting takes an unforeseen turn when one of the Anderson kids sneaks out to go to a concert. Jenny, determined to protect her reputation, and Lola with the remaining kids in tow, head out and have the adventure of a lifetime during one magical night in the big city.“-Disney Channel
When I was in LA I had the chance to screen the movie and it is so much fun! It’s cute, funny and kids are absolutely going to love it. I really like that it is a movie you can turn on for the whole family and everyone will enjoy it.
After screening the movie, we had the chance to interview Sabrina Carpenter ( who plays “Jenny”) & Sofia Carson (who plays “Luci”). These two girls are the sweetest and so nice in person! I absolutely loved them both in the movie. They are very fun to watch. Stay tuned for my interview post, which will be posting closer to the movie’s release date.
“The Disney Channel Original Movie also stars Nikki Hahn as introverted teen Emily Cooper, Mallory James Mahoney as young fashionista Katy Cooper, Max Gecowets as the rebellious Trey Anderson, Jet Jurgensmeyer as chef wunderkind Bobby Anderson, Madison Horcher as roller derby fanatic Alison “AJ” Anderson and Kevin Quinn (Disney Channel’s “BUNK’D”) as Jenny’s crush Zac Chase. “Adventures in Babysitting” is directed by John Schultz (“Judy Moody and the Not Bummer Summer,” “Like Mike”) and written by Tiffany Paulsen (“Nancy Drew”).
