Smooth-out jumpy video ?

[J741]

I have a lot of 8mm video tapes on which my parents have recorded many short video clips. However both of my parents are quite old, and my father is in the early stages of Parkinson's desease. As a result of this all of the video clips are very unsteady, jumpy, and hard to watch without motion sickness pills.

So does anyone know of good video editing software which can signifigantly reduce the jumpy motion in home movies?
