Mariah Bell Otey Reddick (1832–1922) was an American midwife, nurse, and domestic worker who was held as a slave at Carnton Plantation in Franklin, Tennessee.

At Carnton, Reddick was the head of the household staff and also worked as a maid, nanny, and midwife for the family.

During the American Civil War, she was sent to Montgomery, Alabama to stay at the home of Varina Davis' mother, Margaret Kempe Howell.

[2] Reddick worked for four generations of the McGavock family at Carnton as a nurse, maid, midwife, and head of the household staff.
