Short description

A college graduate goes to work as a nanny for a rich New York family. Ensconced in their home, she has to juggle their dysfunction, a new romance, and the spoiled brat in her charge.

What's left behind the scenes

In the book, the main character's name is Nan, which sounds similar to the English 'the Nanny'.
Other differences from the book: in the film's plot, Annie will have already finished college; before moving in with the X family, she will live with her mother, who works as a nurse; Annie will hide from her mother that she is a nanny, claiming to be a bank employee.
The filmmakers report that the ending of the adaptation will differ from the finale of the book by 100%.
The entire narrative of the film is voiced over by Scarlett Johansson.
Filming took place in New York City in April-May 2006. During production, a curious incident occurred involving Scarlett Johansson and the city's mayor, Michael Bloomberg. City officials announced a new tax policy to attract film production to New York, and a conference was held jointly with the crew of 'The Nanny Diaries'. However, at the last moment, when Mayor Bloomberg publicly stated how 'happy he was to be near such a beauty as Scarlett,' Scarlett herself was nowhere to be found: the actress was working on set at that moment, ignoring the press conference. In response to the minor scandal caused by this event, Johansson stated: 'Production always comes first'.
