This book combines theories of family practices, care and childhood studies with the personal perspectives of nannies, au pairs, parents and children to provide new understandings of what constitutes care in nanny families. The authors investigate the ways in which all the participants experience the caring situation, and expose the possibilities and problems of nanny and au pair care. Their study illuminates the ways in which paid domestic care workers 'do' family and care; in doing so, it contributes to wider political and scientific discussions of inequalities at the global and local level, reproduced in and between families, in the context of rapidly changing welfare states.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e“By including the accounts of parents, nannies and au pairs and children, this lively study throws light on themes of family and employment that will become increasingly important.” David Morgan, University of Manchester\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIntroduction: Nannies, Au Pairs, Parents and Children in Sweden  Researching Families and Paid Domestic Care Parents Emplying Nannies and Au Pairs Nannies and Au Pairs Doing Care Children's Narratives of Nanny and Au Pair Care Caring Complexities: Care Situations and Ambiguous Expectations  Conclusion: Doing Nanny Families","brand":"Bristol University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49409901855063,"sku":"9781529201512","price":75.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9781529201512.jpg?v=1730508390","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/nanny-families-practices-of-care-by-nannies-au-pairs-parents-and-children-in-sweden-9781529201512","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
