June 16 is International Domestic Workers Day, and Well-Paid Maids is celebrating!
International Domestic Workers Day honors house cleaners, nannies and care workers. It marks the anniversary of the 2011 passage of the International Labour Organization Convention that established international labor laws for domestic workers.
Aaron Seyedian launched the home cleaning company Well-Paid Maids in June 2017 and, that August, began offering cleaning services around the D.C. area with his staff of three — including himself.
At the time, he paid cleaners a living wage of $16 an hour, plus benefits.
On World Digestive Health Day, we recognize the millions worldwide who suffer from digestive-related illnesses and disorders. More often than not, many who suffer from digestive issues have something called a DGBI (Disorder of Gut-Brain Interaction), which millions suffer from. Fortunately, treatments exist targeting these disorders; GI Psychology is a behavioral health practice specializing in gut-brain therapies and has brought relief to patients suffering from these disorders.
Based in Burke, VA, Dr. Navidi, the co-founder of GI Psychology, has spent the last decade working with patients with digestive health issues. Dr. Navidi and his team at GI Psychology have a proven record of success using a unique treatment methodology that blends Clinical Hypnosis and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). The American College of Gastroenterology has approved this approach, bolstering hundreds of studies and research findings over the last 30 years.
