Drawing on an ethnography of Nigerian migrant motherhood in London, we explore how the original design of children's health records, known as the Red Book, to log routine vaccinations has been transformed to document family proof of residency amidst Britain's "hostile environment." Nigerian migrant mothers use the Red Book as evidence of raising British children and to overcome their precarity. By resolutely documenting their children's immunizations, Nigerian mothers pursue both biological and political immunity while on a simultaneous immunization and citizenship journey.
