Hi, the Node class has what you need.

Node Class Docs

yourNode.get_child(0)  -- Will get the first child
yourNode.get_child_count() -- Will tell you the number of children
yourNode.get_children() -- Returns a list that you could iterate as below:

for yourChild in yourNode.get_children():
      yourNode.remove_child(yourChild)
      yourChild.queue_free()
