    Hello,

    My wife, Natalie, and I would like to welcome you to our home in the picturesque heartland of county Clare, Ireland.
    I am Irish, from the local area. Natalie is Russian from Kazakhstan, now an Irish citizen too.

    Our daughter, Saoirse, is 2 years old (June 2025). We are expecting twins in July.

    We'd love some help around the house with the kids and keeping things in order.

    We live in a 3 bedroom house in Ennis town. Within walking distance of all the major shops, bakerys and cafes.
