Baby is an Italian teen drama television series created for Netflix.[1] The first season debuted on 30 November 2018. The series follows students at an elite high school in Rome who are involved in prostitution.[2][3] It is loosely based on the story of two high school girls in Rome involved in an underage prostitution ring (the "Baby Squillo" scandal) in 2014.[4]

In December 2018, Netflix announced a second season of the series,[5] which premiered on 18 October 2019.[6] The series was renewed for a third and final season,[7] which was released on 16 September 2020.[8]
