Episode 1


Minyon family

Frank and Danielle Minyon are the first couple to seek Jo's no-nonsense advice. They have two children, Frank (seven) and unruly Skyler (three), whose massive tantrums ensure she always gets her own way.

Danielle struggles to get the children up in the morning, as young Frank won't even dress himself and Skyler refuses to get out of bed. Danielle spends the rest of her day chasing Skyler, who takes advantage of her mother's inconsistent discipline.

By the time dad gets home an exhausted Danielle needs help, but Frank refuses to discipline his "little princess" when she misbehaves, while being harsh with his sensitive son.

It's up to supernanny Jo Frost to bring some discipline, structure and laughter back into this house.



Episode 2


Webb family
Arthur and Cathy Webb are a career couple who are juggling the demands of work, children and, most of all, sleep. Cathy works full-time as a human resources manager, and Arthur is a management consultant whose job requires that he travel every week from Sunday night to Friday night.

They have three children - Josef (six), Paige, who has Down's syndrome (five), and Madison (two and a half). With Dad away all week, Mum is left to handle the three children alone. She has no structure to the evenings, rarely eats with the kids, and finds each night draining.

Dad spends the entire weekend either sleeping or running non-stop errands, considering the latter his "family time". Mum is at her wits' end and wants Supernanny's help. Can Jo reinvigorate the Webbs and give this family some structure?


Episode 3


Mcmillion family
Cheryl McMillion is struggling to raise her three children on her own, while her husband Jonathan, a National Guardsman, is serving his tour of duty in Afghanistan.

However, while dad is overseas there's a battle to keep the peace on the home front as the boys - Ryan (nine), Hunter (seven) and Garrett (three) - act up by fighting and yelling.

Mum's had it with the aggression in her family, and turns to supernanny Jo Frost for help.


Episode 4


Larmer family
Jo Frost visits Judy and Ed Larmer to address the destructive, out-of-control behaviour of their four children - John (4), twins Jessica and Justin (2½), and Joey (11 months).

However, it isn't long before Jo realises that it's the parents' constant fighting and bickering with each other that is the source of the family unrest.

Supernanny must help the parents resolve their issues that influence their children's destructive behaviour.
