Supernanny

Supernanny is a British reality television programme about parents struggling with their children's behaviour, mealtime, potty training, etc.

The show features professional nanny Jo Frost, who devotes each episode to helping a family where the parents are struggling with child-rearing.

Through instruction and observation, she shows parents alternative ways to discipline their children and regain order in their households.

[1] In their book Handbook of Psychological Assessment, Case Conceptualization, and Treatment, Children and Adolescents, Michel Hersen and David Reitman state, "With considerable skill, Super Nanny Jo Frost implements standard, evidence-based contingency management procedures, as well as heavy evidence of creating alternative positive activity structures.

[6] Newcastle University media and cultural-studies lecturer Tracey Jensen believes that the format results in the mother being "shamed before she is transformed".
