Abstract

Between 2004 and 2008, the percentage of mothers who were born in non-English speaking countries rose slightly from 20.7% to 23.5% (Table 89). The increase was mainly among mothers born in North East Asian and Southern Asian countries. There was a decline in the percentage of mothers born in Southern European countries.
