Nanny 911: Nanny Stella visits James and Alice Hanley
Parents of America fear not – the Nanny 911 team is on its way back. Accompanying Nanny Lillian are three of the most headstrong childcare specialists in Britain, all of whom possess an immense amount of parenting wisdom.
In this week’s series finale, Nanny Stella visits James and Alice Hanley. The couple are calm and understanding family therapists, but when it comes to their own children they definitely struggle! While both parents strive to be disciplinarians, when a conflict arises, they fall apart.
Their eldest child Matthew complains his parents continually favour his sisters. Consequently, to attract their attention, he throws tantrums and even smashes objects against the wall. His hour long brawls with Dad only come to an end when Dad manages to sit on him.
Seven year old Stephanie believes she is in control of the household and no fight comes at too high a price to prove so. However, with her whining and noisy tantrums, the youngest daughter Cassandra, is the one who is really in charge. If Mum gives her food or clothes, count on Cassandra to reject them.
Nanny Stella teaches these parents to reinstall discipline and rescpect within their household and she also encourages Mum and Dad to give Matthew the attention he deserves.

James ‘Jim’ Hanley is an idiot. He thinks he knows it all, has done it all, ‘been there done that’…. If he is so smart and great, why would the Nanny need to visit in the first place? His kids are TERRIBLE. Matthew knows exactly what he is doing and how to rule the house at his young age. When you get to wondering why children these days are so self-centered and disrespectful, you can look to parents like Jim and see why. I hope he doesn’t have more children. Children are a reflection of their parents.
