The Baby-Sitters Club Wiki

The Baby-Sitters Club books were translated into French in France by Gallimard Jeunesse starting in 1997 and running through at least 2003. When the books were re-released starting in 2015, the 90's translations were edited to use less-formal language.

The French translations mostly kept the original American names and cultural references. Exceptions include Dawn Schafer (name changed to Carla), Stacey McGill (name changed to Lucy MacDouglas), Watson Brewer (name changed to Jim Lelland), and Haley Braddock (name changed to Helen). More last names were changed: "Kishi" became "Koshi", "Thomas" became "Parker", "Spier" became "Cook" and "Bruno" became "Rinaldi".

The French translations (both in the original and re-released versions) had unique cover art designed for each book.
