Mrs. Baylock was apparently one of the apostates of Satan who knew that Damien Thorn was the Antichrist. When Damien's nanny Holly hung herself, Mrs. Baylock attempted to replace her as Damien's nanny as to protect Damien.
The Omen (1976)
The day after Holly's death, Mrs. Baylock visits Robert and Katherine and successfully gets the job as Damien's new nanny. The day after Mrs. Baylock is hired, when Kathy decides to take Damien to a wedding with her and Robert, Mrs. Baylock (knowing that Damien will fear the church where the wedding is taking place due to his status as the Antichrist) tries to change her mind; but Kathy curtly orders her to get Damien ready anyway.

That night, when Mrs. Baylock brings a Hellhound into the house as a watchdog for Damien without Robert or Kathy's consent, Robert scolds her for it and orders her to have the RSPCA remove the hound in the morning. One day, while Robert is away at Dr. Greer's, while Mrs. Baylock is watching Damien play on his tricycle, she allows him to ride it out into the hallway. There, Damien rides his tricycle into Kathy, causing her to fall from the second floor. Kathy is subsequently hospitalized. The next day, when all of the Thorns' servants except for Mrs. Baylock leave, Robert has Mrs. Baylock look after Damien while he is away in Italy investigating Damien's origins.
