  • Descrição: Introduction: Child care has been supported in a Judeo-Christian family model, so that the division of roles between the couple is functional: the man provides and the woman cares. However, this division of roles does not conform to new family configurations and even less to contemporary social dynamics. Objective: To study the social organization of child care, from the perspective of the mothers of vulnerable sectors in Bogotá. Method: Narrative hermeneutic design, which used in-depth individual interviews, which were subjected to a coding and categorization process for the final construction of the narrative. Results: The care of the infants continues being an exclusive responsibility of the women, they, in poverty conditions, also assume the family supply in partial or total absence of the father. And although there are some state programs related to care, these women do not get access to the benefits due to ignorance of their existence or because these programs do not have adequate coverage. Conclusions: Poor women must simultaneously assume the roles of providing and caring for infants without being able to benefit from the scarce care programs offered by the State.
