Supernanny follows Jo Frost, an experienced nanny, as she visits families in desperate need of professional child-rearing advice and assistance. She observes the family in their day-to-day activities and then shows the parents how to use practical techniques to discipline and nurture their children. Such techniques include coming down to a child’s level to talk with or discipline them and implementing the use of a “naughty chair/stool/room” when the child misbehaves.
Overall, this show provides an hour of clean entertainment, though in some episodes the child’s misbehavior includes foul language and aggressive behavior. Though not strong enough to classify it as “violence,” in several episodes, the children have had issues with being aggressive either towards their siblings or other playmates. This has included hitting and spitting and other aggressive behavior. Language is not generally a problem, but on several episodes, the children’s bad behavior has included the use of mildly foul language such as “hell” and “damn” as well as an occasional array of bleeped expletives. These acts of misbehavior are disciplined and by the end of the show, the children are responsive to their parents and are fairly well behaved. Due to the nature of the series, sexual content is not a factor for this show.
Most episodes are clean, funny and enjoyable for the whole family. However, due to some occasionally mild language and aggressive behavior by the children, this is a show that may not always be appropriate for children under the age of ten.
