There, she finds work as a nanny for a wealthy family and moonlights at a laundry. With the help of her new nanny friends from Mexico, Colombia, and the Dominican Republic, as well as relatives in the Bronx, America is driven to reunite with her daughter. However, her dark past threatens to derail her dreams, and she must summon the courage to overcome her fears and protect her new life.
