The Hand That Rocks The Cradle

What role should the nanny have in the family?

The Louise Woodward case raised significant issues about the number of children in the West being cared for by nannies. What is the nanny's place in the family unit, and what is life like for the nannies themselves?

Also on the programme: Egyptian writer and activist Narwal El-Saadawi has never shied away from uncompromising opinions, and suggests women across the world are ultimately puppets of the powerful. Dr Gouri Dhillon answers women's health problems.
