Experts sought to sort out families

Childcare professionals are being invited by a television production company to take part in a documentary series to help hassled parents bring some order to their chaotic family life. Ricochet South is looking for childcare experts aged 30 to 60 to star in a three-part series for Channel 4, and help families sort out their problems, ranging from tantrum-prone toddlers to sibling rivalry.
