Cast Of Father Of The Bride: Where Are They Now?

The Baby-Sitters Club was a widely popular novel series about a group of friends who lived in the fictional town of Stoneybrook, Connecticut. The girls created a clubhouse to run their baby-sitting club and one summer decided to start a full blown summer camp! In 1995 the books were turned into a family comedy drama film and despite a low ranking at the box office, the movie received a lot of positive reviews. The Baby-Sitters Club now goes down in history as a favorite cult classic from the ’90s, and shockingly, it’s already been 21 years since the movie was first released! Find out which stars from The Baby-Sitters Club went on to become successful actors and those who faded from the spotlight to pursue other interests.

In the character of ‘Cokie’ Mason was actress Marla Sokoloff, the mean girl of the group who was constantly trying to ruin the summer for Kristy and her friends. The last we saw of her is when she’s falling from a tree into a garbage pail! Prior to appearing in The Baby-Sitters Club film, she held the role of Gia Mahan on Full House and appeared on the comedy show, Step by Step. Sokoloff continued with acting and her career has thrived. She held a recurring role on Party of Five as Jody Lynch, a regular role on Over the Top and Big Day and another recurring role on The Fosters. She’s best recognized for her main role as Lucy Hatcher on The Practice. She also did brief stints on Desperate Housewives, CSI: New York, Melissa & Joey, Grey’s Anatomy and Hot in Cleveland, as well as appearing in a handful of small film projects.

7. Vanessa Zima

Vanessa Zima was one of the youngest actresses in The Baby-Sitters Club!

5. Tricia Joe

How could we forget Claudia’s song and dance to help her study and remember that the brain is the “center of the chain.” We all felt bad for her as she was stuck in summer school while the rest of the gang enjoyed their summer. But it seems like her sing-a-long routine helped because her Facebook page shows she has a degree in dance from Fullerton College and a second degree in criminal justice from California State University. Joe hasn’t had any significant acting credits since The Baby-Sitters Club finished; it seems she no longer has an interest in acting. She still resides in Los Angeles where she is originally from.
