Description
Hi there, my name is Maggie, I live in Askeaton, County Limerick. I live in an old country farm house with acres of land. I live with my son Oliver who is 19 years old. We have a friendly Springer Spaniel called Molly who lives inside the house with us.
I take on gardening jobs and maintain the garden at a hotel in Limerick.
I love gardening and growing fruit and vegetables.
I have many cleaning jobs in private houses near Askeaton.
I am a horticulture teacher in Limerick and Ennis.
I love cycling and there's a forest park near us. Also there is also an animal farm near us. There is a leisure centre for swim or sauna. We are a 4 km cycle from the Shannon estuary. Limerick city is just 30 minutes driving from here.
I would love some help and company in our house and garden. I'm the wheatgrass fairy.
Looking forward to meeting new friends and learning more.
