Description
Hi! I am Síle- which is Gaelic for Shiela. I live in the suburbs of Galway in the West of Ireland with my two children Ailbhe 4 and Una 7. I am looking for childminding help from mid June for 8 weeks or so.
We do not have pets yet but they would love a cat in 2025🙈. I work as an Occupational Therapist in the hospital 5 miles away. I speak a bit of French and Spanish. We speak English and Gaelic at home. We live a 15 min cycle from the beach and have a bus to the city centre outside the house- this is about 10 miles/20 min bus ride. I am looking for child minding help this Summer! I am biased but I love Galway. Galway is less busy and expensive compared to Dublin but so much fun and so close to nature x

You will be very well located and can enjoy nature, the city, concerts etc. There will definitely a week off for you to do whatever you like from July 4th!
