Susie Carmichael

The kind and competitive neighbor who serves as the voice of reason against Angelica's bullying.

Susanna Yvonne "Susie" Carmichael (voiced by Cree Summer) is the African-American daughter of Randy and Dr. Lucy Carmichael, and Tommy's neighbor. She has an older sister named Alisa and a younger sister named Buster. Her family buys a home on Tommy's street in the Season 1 episode "Meet the Carmichaels," and their mothers become close friends. Susie bonds very well with the babies, considering them her good friends.

While she doesn't often get along with Angelica, she makes a conscious effort to be nice to her, serving as the voice of reason for Angelica's bullying and lies and generally being much kinder to the babies. Like her mother, Susie excels in various aspects of her life and has a very kind and warm attitude. Her only real character flaw is her competitiveness. In the original series, she is consistently 3 years old, but in the 2021 reboot, she is depicted as a baby around the same age as the other babies.
