"Not a Sister, not a Worker. Other." explores the narrations of au pairs coming from Latin America and their experiences as female migrants in the global care chain, asking who is taking care of the caretakers when facing power structures intrinsic to postcolonial subjects migrating to the Global North. Which coping skills are they utilizing, and how can they counterbalance the power dynamics present in the au pair scheme? Through a series of interviews with women who have been in this position, this research tries to find insights and strategies that can benefit future au pair candidates.
