I am a mom of 3 wonderful kids and a certified teacher with 22 years of experience in the public school classroom. I work full-time as an elementary vocal music teacher for Arlington Public Schools but as my kids are a bit older now, I have time available during the week and on weekends to provide care for families in my area. I love to sing, cook, dance, and read stories. As a veteran teacher, safety and organization is always my first priority. Please feel free to reach out if you have any questions for me. Hope to meet your family soon!

I have known Miriam for 8 years. We worked together for 3 years and have become life-long friends. Miriam is kind, patient, loving, caring, and nurturing. She is an exceptional and dedicated mother and teacher. I am so impressed by Miriam's parenting skills. She is continuously coming up with fun and exciting activities that motivate and engage her children. She is just as exceptional in the classroom. Miriam has the ability to inspire and engage a classroom of 30+ children. She has great behavior management skills. She sets reasonable, yet high expectations. She is consistent and clear as well. I highly recommend Miriam for this new venture and I feel that anyone who chooses to work with Miriam is truly lucky!
