However, her experience with the family is plagued by issues.
The mother Amy (Michelle Monaghan) grows jealous of the bond Aisha formers with her child and underpays her, leading to growing tensions. Meanwhile the father Adam (Morgan Spector) appears to be leading a secret life away from his wife and child. Amid this tense atmosphere, Aisha begins to experience a series of terrifying hallucinations and black outs which could jeopardise her job as a nanny.
She soon discovers there may be more to the phenomena she is experiencing. If its Rotten Tomatoes rating is to be believed, it is a must-watch on the platform..
