Jo Frost is Super Nanny, a British nanny with over 15 years of experience and specific techniques for dealing with virtually any situation. Super Nanny visits ten families in this first season, and each family visit begins with Super Nanny's observation of how family members interact followed by a discussion with the parents about problems observed. Then Super Nanny takes charge and provides parents with concrete tools and solutions to issues like tantrums, disrespect, sleep problems, and mealtime battles. Virtually every solution begins with establishing a detailed household routine and employing a consistent discipline technique within the home. While Super Nanny's techniques don't differ markedly from those found in most quality books on child rearing, seeing Super Nanny apply those techniques to real life situations is immensely effective. Concepts like the "naughty step" or "naughty room" (more commonly referred to as a "timeout") are illustrated very specifically; from the appropriate room, chair or mat to use for children of different ages to the optimum time of confinement and the parent's most effective use of body language and tone of voice. In dealing with sleep issues, knowing that the appropriate course of action for keeping a child in his own bed is to repeatedly return the child to bed until he falls asleep is fine in theory, but many exhausted parents find it impossible to stay the course when confronted by a hysterical child who gets out of bed 39 times in an evening. Super Nanny shows real parents exactly where to sit, where to look, and how to stay the course to get their child to sleep, even in the face of their own extreme frustration and emotional and physical exhaustion. Super Nanny also addresses parental issues like communication, inequitable division of child rearing responsibilities, and conflicting perspectives on appropriate child behavior and discipline, detailing specific strategies for improving communication and establishing a consistent, united approach to child rearing. Viewers can watch all ten Super Nanny episodes in their entirety, select specific segments of individual shows, or choose any one of Super Nanny's top ten techniques to address their own specific needs or preferences. --Tami Horiuchi

5.0 out of 5 stars It Really Helps To See The Techniques In Action, September 29, 2006

By	Melanie Mendelson "www.GoForYourDreams.com" - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I have a toddler who just hit "terrible twos". I've heard a lot of good things about the "Supernanny" show but never watched it, so I decided to buy a DVD. I'm glad I did!

The Supernanny provides very clear instructions on her parenting techniques. First we see her doing the technique, then the parents. Then it goes in detail in what the parents did wrong when implementing the technique, and shows again how to do it correctly. This repetition really helps to finally "get it".

I read lots of parenting books, but watching this DVD beats mosts of these books hands down! What you read in books can be interpreted in many different ways... most of which are wrong ways. Watching the DVD allows you to SEE exactly what to do, and HOW to do it.

5.0 out of 5 stars A must See for new Parents, January 9, 2007

By	Ramiro A. Flores - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I bought the DVD as a gift because a friend of mine was having a hard time with her kids, they were running the house and didn`t respect her at all, and i thought maybe this could help her. A few days later i bumped in to her and she was very grateful, she said all the tips the supernanny gave were right on the money, the kids respected her a bit more, they were more obedient, and she was very pleased with the results, i thought, well maybe she`s just saying it, but no i saw the kids and they really did change theyre behavior.

I really really really recommend the Supernanny DVD, if you or some you know are new parents and seem to have a hard time educating the kids, this DVD is a must see.

5.0 out of 5 stars SUPER HELPFUL!, May 14, 2007

By	Jeannine Graff (Chicago, IL) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This DVD is awesome to have because being a single mom (parent), it's hard to find a lot of free time to read up/catch up on the healthy, constructive ways of raising children. I gave it a 5 because it has awesome tips and they work. I would advise however, that many of the episodes are repetitive to some extent so don't expect to want to watch the whole series in one night.
