2024 was a big year for Well-Paid Maids with a number of bucket list accomplishments.

To start, we are the only certified living-wage cleaning company in the area. That means we pay our cleaners, who are W-2 employees, at least $26 an hour and offer benefits, like health insurance, 24 paid days off per year and more.


The holiday season is upon us… are you ready? Whether you’re hosting loved ones, enjoying festive outings or heading out of town, a clean home is the best way to ensure the next couple of weeks are stress-free — and Well-Paid Maids wants to help!

The D.C. area cleaning company isn’t just known for its high ratings and rave reviews. It also stands out because cleaners, who are classified as W-2 employees, are treated with the dignity they deserve. They earn at least $26 an hour, and they receive benefits, including health insurance and 24 paid days off per year.


Today’s fast-paced world can be challenging to form genuine connections, especially for those of us who prefer quieter, more thoughtful interactions. Traditional social apps often fall short for introverted individuals. The constant noise, superficial interactions, and overwhelming social cues can be draining.

As an introvert, I craved genuine connections, meaningful conversations, and activities that aligned with my interests. But finding like-minded people who understood my need for quiet moments and deeper conversations seemed impossible.


Darlings, you deserve to have a HOOT this holiday season! Join award-winning DC drag queen Tara Hoot for a night of stories, songs, and feel-good winter merriment to get you in the holiday spirit! We’ll laugh, we’ll sing, and we’ll revel in the ridiculousness together! Because, let’s be honest–we need to forget (gestures broadly) everything going on in the world, if only for an evening! Cozy up and grab your tickets today! I can’t wait to welcome you!

Plus! I’m donating a portion of ticket proceeds to four amazing organizations, so when you buy a ticket, you’re giving back to SMYAL, Anacostia Watershed Society, Food Rescue US-DC, and the DC Chapter of the ACLU!


“Hershel and the Hanukkah Goblins” tells the story of Hershel of Ostropol, a clever traveler who arrives in a village haunted by goblins that have been ruining Hanukkah celebrations for years. Determined to restore the holiday’s joy, Hershel accepts the daunting challenge of spending eight nights in the old synagogue, outsmarting the goblins who try to stop him. With each night, the goblins grow larger and more fearsome, but Hershel’s wit proves mightier than their strength. On the final night, Hershel faces his greatest challenge yet: the King of the Goblins. Can he outsmart the Goblin King and light the candles, saving Hanukkah for the village? A heartwarming and humorous tale about courage, cleverness, and the spirit of the season, this play brings Eric Kimmel’s beloved story to life with vibrant characters, thrilling encounters, and a message of hope.

Hershel and the Hanukkah Goblins is best suited for ages 6 and up.
