Marni is doing her best: she’s sober, she’s scrappy, and she would do anything for her baby daughter Mila. So when a surprise daycare bill hits and every door slams shut, she finds her solution in the most unexpected Craigslist ad she’s ever seen. Armed with a frozen milk stash, a ride-or-die best friend, and the street smarts she picked up in a past life, Marni pulls off a hustle that’s equal parts absurd, resourceful, and deeply human.
