Following is a response from Senior DHS Stata Specialist, Tom Pullum:

There is no explicit question about the education of the mother. Level of education is collected for every adult in the household, and during data processing the child is linked to the mother by line number and her education is attached to the child's record. Therefore mother's education is only available in DHS data if the mother lives in the same household as the child. Income is not included in DHS surveys.
