About Miriam

Experience: 10 yrs

I am a warm, well-educated woman with 17 years experience caring for children of all ages-infancy through adolescence in the DC area. I am competent and patient. I enjoy guiding babies through developmental milestones, creative play and tender physical care. I enjoy cooking for kids--purees, and more substantial and nutritious meals as they grow. I have worked as a nanny for older children, bringing them to activities and on adventures of our own devising, and organizing households where teenagers need transport and homework help. I've worked happily as a family cook as well. My vaccinations are up to date, and if necessary I follow Covid protocols. If you think my background might meet your family's needs I'd be happy to provide a resume. Thank you.

Mimi cared for our six-month-old son during the year we lived in Washington, DC. She is energetic, dependable, professional, kind, and genuinely caring. Our son absolutely loved spending time with her. He was a very active baby, and Mimi did a wonderful job keeping him engaged and getting him out of the house. She regularly took him on walks and outings to the library, the Cathedral, Tatte, and around the neighborhood. She was also very attentive to our preferences and consistently followed our guidance around bottle feeding, diaper changes, naps, and his daily routine. As a first-time mom, I also really appreciated Mimi’s experience and support. There were many times when I would ask for her perspective or guidance, and she was always thoughtful, reassuring, and helpful. We were very grateful to have her care for our son and would happily recommend her to another family. If we hadn't moved, Mimi would still be with us today!
