Biography

Frost was born in London, England, in 1971 to an English father and a Gibraltarian mother.

While she has no children of her own, Frost has 22 years' experience in the field of childcare, working as a nanny in Britain and the United States, including work with families on the television series Supernanny, which is shown in 49 countries. Frost's books are Supernanny: How to Get the Best from Your Children, Ask Supernanny: What Every Parent Wants to Know, and Jo Frost's Confident Baby Care. Her childcare approach focuses on maintaining consistent adult authority, while creating a safe and peaceful environment. She introduced parents to "the naughty step", a variation on the "time-out" method. She suggests solutions for behavioural issues such as adherence to bed time, meal time conduct, behaviour in public, sibling rivalry, and anger management.

In 2010, Frost presented a new show titled Jo Frost Extreme Parental Guidance on Channel 4. The British international format rights are distributed by DRG.

On 5 March 2010 Frost appeared on Alan Carr: Chatty Man, talking about her personal life.

In November 2010, after almost 9 years of helping other families, ABC announced the end of Supernanny in the USA. A new version, not featuring Jo Frost, is now on-air on Lifetime in the US.

In 2011 she worked on a second series of Jo Frost: Extreme Parental Guidance for Channel 4 in the UK. The first episode of the second series was aired on Channel 4 at 8 pm on 6 July 2011.
