Back Alley Nurseries: Sex Workers of Bogotá








Subscribe to VICE News here:

In a corner of Santa Fe, one of Bogotá’s seedier neighborhoods, a woman named Luz Marina runs a nursery for the children of prostitutes who work in the city’s red light district. She charges $5 to look after babies and young children while their mothers sell their bodies, often for between $15 and $30. When the mothers can’t pay, Luz Marina doesn’t make a fuss, looking after their children for free. Over the years, women have left babies with her and never returned. For all her work helping children, she receives no assistance from the local government — she does it because nobody else will.

VICE News spent time with Luz Marina in Bogotá, documenting her nursery for Bogota’s forgotten children.

  1. Andrea says she's a good mom, displays favoritism, then says it's easier to be on the streets than taking care of her kids

  2. The women need to be educated/ provided with birth control if that is not something they are aware of or available to them. And the worst of all is that the men fathering these kids get off scott free…no financial, emotional support or future involvement with child's care and needs. Obviously, it would be difficult to pinpoint the fathers, but there is DNA testing, although, idk how available/expensive it is for the women or if support would even be enforced. I wish there were a charity to aid in the care of these children.

  3. If they can dish it out let them suffer the same let them get raped and go threw the same and not to mention catching all kinds of sexual diseases a eye for an eye tooth for a tooth

  4. That little boy at 2:28 melted and broke my heart all at the same time. These poor kids aren’t off to a good start in life. No disrespect to the “Angel Caregiver” – I think she’s beyond awesome – but those kids need more care than what she is able to give.

  5. That was heart wrenching and heart breaking. All Those kids affected , I pray for your safety, your health, your happiness and success to a better life please god and angels please watch over these children and all children and the mothers who want escape from this lifestyle please help them 🙏

  6. No matter how you slice and dice it, children will always be the innocent victims. Bringing them into this kind of world, and the chances of them getting out of it is just plain tragic. No child asks to be born into poverty and violence.

  7. She's NO daycare owner. She is the PIMP. She takes the kids and puts them in that room box and sends her bitches out to make her money. All that crap about drop off anytime and can't pay is ALL lIES… LIES!

  8. So much suffering in this world. I feel their pain inside me and my heart breaks because I can’t do anything about it. I can’t change it and it bothers me so much. I wish their was something I could do to help people. I wish I could take every single one of these women and their kids and give them a good life, free of pain, free of fear, violence, sex, drugs, and abuse. I wish I was a billionaire or even a millionaire. I would do so much good with my fortune.

  9. that fact that that lady made more money when she was a kid than she is now says a lot about society

  10. im shocked the most at the children having no toys at all to play with there. One can see how bored the older kids locked. I dont understand how dog has it's own TV etc while kids are left somewhere without toys.

  11. Uhm..really vice? "Transvestites?"
    Did you really just say that? Its transgender. Transvesitite is an outdated and not PC term.

  12. The subtitles translated to her saying she made up to a million a day some times but million in Spanish is only equivalent to $1,000 not one million USD.

  13. Estas mujeres no deberian tener hijos! Estos lepes tienen todo en contra para ser buenas personas en un futuro!! Esto se vuelve un circulo vicioso!! 🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️

  15. Ugh cant we start some type of organization to help this lady and the babies she watches ! 🙏🏽 Why are children allowed to live like this and why are the people who can help make change aren’t. There some real change that need to be made around the wrld. At least help and protect the child. They cant do it themselves and it’s not fair that they have to live their lives like this.
