Not sure what you're talking about expect for the process management
part in which case it seems you're looking for psutil:
https://code.google.com/p/psutil/#Process_management
In detail, if you want to work with process children:

>>> import psutil, os
>>> thisproc = psutil.Process(os.getpid())
>>> for child in thisproc.get_children():
...          print child.name
...          print child.get_memory_info()
...          print child.get_open_files()
...
