Are your kids out of control?
Are you at the end of your tether?
Do you want your life back?
You need Supernanny!

Meet Supernanny Jo Frost, a modern-day Mary Poppins here to rescue today's beleaguered parents by offering up her practical, road-tested methods of childrearing in an indispensable new book based on her ABC-TV series. With over 15 years of experience, Jo has seen it all — from meals where food ends up all over the floor and tantrums at bedtime, to just plain stressed-out parents. Her strategies include:

  • Preventing fussy eaters from taking over mealtimes
  • Resolving your child's sleep problems, once and for all
  • Avoiding sibling rivalry battles
  • How to talk so your children will listen
  • How to enjoy parenting without its feeling like a chore
  • How to establish a routine that works for you
  • How to bridge the gap between you and your children
  • How to get the most from your children and yourself
Jo's methods are simple and will work for everyone: a regular routine and defined boundaries and consistency, backed up with plenty of love and attention. So whether your 2-year-old won't sleep through the night or your 4-year-old is on the rampage, Jo knows exactly what to do, and will show you how to do it. If you're one of those stressed-out parents who's desperate for a more peaceful home, Supernanny will be the answer to your prayers.

Synopsis:

Jo Frost, a.k.a. SuperNanny, is the answer to every stressed-out parent's dreams. In Abc's upcoming primetime tv series by the same name, Jo works miracles on problem children by dispensing hard-won wisdom and reassuring us that parents really do know best. The SuperNanny method gives parents the know-how to tackle problem areas such as mealtime, bath time, bedtime, bedwetting, homework, sibling rivalry, aggressive behavior, or a child who just won't do what he or she is told to do. Divided into action-oriented problem and solution sections, SuperNanny will show parents how to restore harmony and authority in the home using the SuperNanny's ten basic rules.
