The Babysitters Club Netflix poster. Five girls cluster around a bed with an old patchwork cover. Three girls lounge on top of the bed: Stacey, on the left, has pale skin and shoulder-length blond hair; Mary-Anne, lying on her stomach, has light brown skin, dark hair in two braids, and black-rimmed glasses; Dawn, on the left, has tanned skin and long black hair. Two girls lounge on the floor: Kristy, on the right, just under Dawn, is kneeling with her right arm resting on the bed. She has pale skin and brown hair in a pony-tail, under a dark red baseball cap. Claudia lies on her back, staring up at Mary-Anne and Dawn. She has light skin and black hair pulled up into a messy bun on top of her head. She's wearing a jellow jumpsuit under a patchwork jacket, and gold high-top boots (can you tell she's the artist?) The wall behind them is purple, with the babysitters Club logo in its classic toy block style, above and between Stacey and Dawn's heads. The tag line at the bottom of the poster, just above the Netflix logo, reads: "Join the club!"
