Shadow Mothers: Nannies, Au Pairs, and the Micropolitics of Mothering
Cameron Lynne Macdonald
Focuses on an aspect of contemporary motherhood often hidden from view: the need for paid childcare by women returning to the workforce, and the complex bonds mothers forge with the 'shadow mothers' they hire. This work locates the roots of individual skirmishes between mothers and their childcare providers in broader cultural and social tensions.
