You can't. You can, in a will, nominate your mother as the child's guardian. If the father objects, the court will look at the situation and make a decision in the best interest of the child. The father will, by law, get the child, unless the court finds him to be unfit or finds that there has been so little contact that having him as the primary residential parent is not in the child's best interest.
