Abstract
Czech Republic is chosen by Ukrainian transnational mothers as a destination for their economic migration, mainly because it is possible, due to the geographical distance, to conduct a circulation migration between the two countries. The life ""here"" and ""there"" and the mobility of female labor migration gives on the one hand Ukrainian mothers the possibility of coordinating productive and reproductive work, but on the other hand they are ""trapped"" in the net of unqualified work, and it is for them hard to obtain a stable job position.
I will analyze how gender operates in transnational spaces, and what impacts it has on the experience of motherhood. I will try to describe how transnational Ukrainian mothers narratively construct and emphasise their experiences with transnational motherhood.
