Cass (Sheridan), a high-powered attorney and single mother of two, is on the hunt for a new nanny after her precocious kids ran off the last one. Meet Matthew (Payne), a world traveler who cannot settle down, until his father challenges him to plant roots. To prove to his father he can stay home and handle domestic life, Matthew interviews for a job as a nanny for a tough client -- Cass. Cass refuses to hire him as her “manny,” but is forced to when she can’t find anyone else to take the job. Matthew wins over the hearts of her kids -- and eventually the boss.

Whelchel stars with her real-life daughter Clancy Cauble, who makes her television debut in this movie which follows a famous mom blogger (Whelchel) facing an empty nest as her daughter (Cauble) prepares to go away to college. When she turns to her blog for advice, she finds herself on the attack by a reader who has conflicting opinions. While she deals with him online, offline she finally meets a great single dad (Shanks) and sparks start to fly. What she doesn’t know is that the confrontational reader and the adorable single dad are, in fact, the same person.

Helen (Strong) can't help but try to constantly play matchmaker for Claire (Garrett), her beautiful daughter who believes love can only be found through fate and not a fix up.
