This research examined how migrant care workers in eldercare institutions in Germany were affected by the COVID-19 pandemic, focusing on their personal experiences. The research is theoretically grounded in intersectionality and the prisoner of love framework. Drawing on 15 qualitative interviews with migrant care workers (MCWs) from Poland and Bosnia-Herzegovina, the main findings highlight that intersecting social positions play an important role in stratifying experiences for MCWs. Migrant workers with high skill levels and job security stressed similarities to their non-migrant colleagues in their day-to-day work experiences during the pandemic, foregrounding their shared professional self-image and creating solidarity between workers of all backgrounds. Strong workplace relationships, emphasising their professional identity, and adapting career plans were ways to mitigate the negative effects of the pandemic. The study's results emphasise the need for a more balanced portrayal of the pandemic's impact on migrant workers
