The show makes my heart so happy when I watch it.

I think that’s important.
[Laughs] And that’s cool, right?
That it holds their attention and that it’s so wholesome and yet so exciting at the same time?
What are we going to see from you this season?
Honestly, this feels very perfect for this show and your character.
[Laughs] Im multi-tasking, cant deal with anything!

And then theres a big scene that comes later that has a lot of conflict.
What has been the most challenging part of playing this role?
[Laughs] Sorry, I had to grab my dog.
This is not how I would normally do an interview but its just what happened today.
But oh my god if you could see this dog, hes so cute!
like tell me more about this puppy!
Hes just so cute but a troublemaker!
[Laughs] Hes trying to get into my veggie garden.
Dixon, out now!
Shes just losing it, and thats real.
Is it going to be interesting?
InAmerican WomanI played a mother but I also had this really wild existence.
She was a complicated character and I loved that.
And then even inValley Girl,I played a mother, but theyre all just so different and colorful.
Not that thats not hard, believe me.
I did talk to them about bringing their water bottles to set and not using plastic bottles.
I was on their case about that, [laughs] that was really bothering me.
[Laughs] She articulated what she had learned and it was really lovely.
I don’t know, those things can sometimes make me a little shy, for sure.
[Laughs] And I just go like, “Oh gosh.”
But it also was totally fine and it works really well.
And now I have to go back to being a mom!
The Baby-Sitters Clubdebuts July 3 on Netflix.
