We have recently returned to Ireland after many years abroad- teaching around the world.
We are just 5km outside of Kells Co Meath in a very small village. Kells is one hour from Dublin and the airport and has regular buses day and night.
We are interested in hearing from you if you would like to experience life in Ireland. In return we would seek help with basic household tasks and looking after our 6 year old daughter. This would mainly be Monday- Friday from 3- 8pm
We are happy to should you around this beautiful part of Ireland when we can.

Co Meath and Kells have many historical sites. We are happy for you to come with us if we are going out for the day.
Dublin is one hour away by bus and we can bring you to the bus stop and collect you when possible. The bus stop is a 5 km taxis journey if needed.
