Afterwards, he directly addresses the audience and gives them a tour of Cherry Tree Lane, stopping outside the Banks family's home. George Banks returns home to learn from his wife, that Katie Nanna has left their service after their children and Michael, have run away, "For the fourth time this month,", they are returned shortly after by Constable Jones, who reveals the children were chasing a lost kite. The children ask their father to help build a better kite. Taking it upon himself to hire a new nanny, Mr. Banks advertises for a no-nonsense nanny.

To contrast and Michael present their own advertisement for a kinder, sweeter nanny. Winifred tries to keep the peace. Mr. Banks rips up the letter and throws the scraps in the fireplace, but the remains of the advertisement magically float up and out into the air; the next day, a number of elderly, sour-faced nannies wait outside the Banks' home, but a strong gust of wind blows them away, Jane and Michael witness a young nanny descending from the sky using her umbrella. Presenting herself to Mr. Banks, Mary Poppins calmly produces the children's restored advertisement and agrees with its requests but promises the astonished banker she will be firm with his children; as Mr. Banks puzzles over the advertisement's return, Mary Poppins hires herself, she convinces him it was his idea, she meets the children and helps them magically tidy their nursery by snapping, before heading out for a walk in the park. Outside, they meet Bert. While the children ride on a carousel, Mary Poppins and Bert go on a leisurely stroll.

Together, they sing "Jolly Holiday", Bert flirts with Mary Poppins. After the duo meets up with the children, Mary Poppins enchants the carousel horses. Describing her victory, Mary Poppins uses the nonsense word "Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious." The outing is ended. The next day, the four meet odd Uncle Albert, who has floated up in the air because of his uncontrollable laughter. Afterward, Mr. Banks becomes annoyed by the household's cheery atmosphere, he threatens to fire Mary Poppins, but she manipulates him into taking the children to his workplace, the bank, the next day. Mr. Banks does so, the children meet Mr. Dawes Sr. and his son. Mr. Dawes aggressively urges Michael to invest his tuppence in the bank snatching the coins from Michael. Michael demands them back. Jane and Michael flee the bank, getting lost in the East End until they run into Bert, now working as a chimney sweep, who escorts them home; the three and Mary Poppins venture onto the rooftops, where they have a song-and-dance number with other chimney sweeps, which spills out into the Banks' home.

An enraged Mr. Banks receives a phone call from his employers, he speaks with Bert, Bert tells him he should spend more time with his children before they grow up. Jane and Michael give their father Michael's tuppence in the hope to make amends. Mr. Banks walks through London to the bank, where he is given a humiliating cashiering and is dismissed. Looking to the tuppence for words, he blurts out "Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious," tells a joke, heads home. Dawes Sr. mulls over the joke and understanding it, floats up into the air, laughing. The next day, the wind changes, meaning Mary Poppins must leave. A happier Mr. Banks is found at home, having fixed his children's kite, takes the family out to fly it. In the park, the Banks family meets Mr. Dawes Jr, who reveals his father died laughing from the joke. Although sorry, Mr. Banks soon becomes happy for him since Mr. Dawes Jr. had never seen his father happier in his life and re-employs Mr. Banks as a junior partner. With her work done
