ROSA (de Puebla) HENRY (de Manhattan)

Hemos comenzado.

In a play room on 86th and Broadway on a rainy day, there are any number of little bobbleheads wandering around in their overalls and striped socks while their nannies congregate around them, taking quick breaks for conversation or discipline. Today I met Rosa and Irma, who care for Henry and Sara, respectively, and I remembered all over again why I wanted to do this 'project.' Rosa and Irma are both from Puebla. I am invited to their house for dinner so we can discuss the why and the what about this job called mothering, errrrr, nannying...
