  Descripción

  Hi, I’m Gráinne!
  
  Before I begin, we’re generally looking for someone over 24 years who has experience with babies or if comfortable and feels they’ll be happy taking care of a little one:) I kindly ask you not to write us if that doesn’t fit you. Thank you so much!
  
  So, about me and my family! I’m an artist living in Rathmines, Dublin, with my partner and our daughter Sama Luna, who is 1 year old. We live a calm, busy, happy family life and enjoy contemporary art, theatre, music, food, nature, foraging, good conversation, and keeping up with politics, world news.
  
  Our home is in a lovely house about 20 minutes’ walk or 10 minutes’ cycle from Dublin city centre. We live in the basement apartment, and above us is my parents’ home. The two homes are connected, so family life is very present here and there is a warm, supportive atmosphere.
  We would love to welcome someone who enjoys a wholesome, home-based lifestyle and would like to experience everyday life in Dublin as part of a family. That said, we would welcome an independent person whose out and about, or chilling, doing their thing :)

  Intercambio cultural y oportunidades de aprendizaje

  This would suit someone who wants to experience family life in Dublin in a relaxed and genuine way. I’m from Dublin and my partner is from Syria. Between us, we’ve also lived in Bergen, Barcelona, Cologne, Damascus, Beirut, Venice and Milan, so we enjoy meeting people from different backgrounds and sharing stories, food and experiences. I studied Visual Art, textiles art and physical theatre, while my partener studied architecture, urbanism and data science.
  We live very close to Rathmines, which has cafés, restaurants, shops, a library, a swimming pool, gym, sauna and all the basics you might need. Dublin city centre is easily reached on foot or by bike, so there is lots to explore in your free time.
  
  We also love making and sharing food with friends. I sometimes make my own clothes, or costumes for projects. And I’m very much into movement, and have done lots of body based training.

  Ayuda

  We are looking for one kind, patient, easygoing and reliable person to help mainly with childcare and some light household tasks.
  
  The main priority is spending time with Sama Luna. She is a joyful, sweet little girl, and I would love to find someone who would be happy to come with me to my studio a few days a week and mind her nearby while I work. This could include taking her to the library or playground, feeding her lunch, and keeping her company through play and daily routines.
  
  On another day, the focus may be more on helping around the house with light cleaning, tidying, laundry, keeping things running smoothly, and gardening. About one day a week, there may also be some light household help for my mother upstairs, but the rest of the time you would be helping me in our apartment and with Sama. Weekends are yours of course, and we over the summer we’ll have days when we won’t need your help.
  
  So, although it’s nice to find our daily rhythm we are flexible and can also move things around so that you can take time to travel and see ireland, if that’s what you want. And we can give you plenty of tips!
  
  If you have experience with childcare, that would be lovely to know. A full driving licence would also be a bonus, as I am practising driving before my test and it could be useful to have someone confident accompanying me. If you happen to have other skills such as carpentry, photography, craftsmanship, arts administration, website building, gardening that could also be something we chat about, but it is not essential at all.
  
  One artwork I have this summer is to design and manage a mobile garden shed with a program of workshops around it, foraging, plant-dyed textiles etc.. Im loving preparing for it but find I have little time, compared to what I used to have. So im hoping that I will find a lovely team-mate to come on board and help me with the art-work-baby-life balance! I’m very open to learning from another person experience and genuinely find the idea of hosting really lovely and interesting!
  
  We’ve hosted once so far and it’s been such a joy, so we’re happy to keep being part of this network :)

  Alojamiento

  You will have your own private room at the top of the house with a view over Dublin. The house is on a peaceful street, just a few minutes from Rathmines.
  Although we live in the basement apartment, the homes are connected, and your room will be upstairs in the main house. It is a family environment, and most meals will be shared with us.

  Algo más...

  We are looking for someone who speaks good English, is a non-smoker, and is naturally in tune with a calm, respectful, fun-loving home-based way of living. This is not really a good fit for someone mainly looking for partying or late nights out.
  Our approach with Sama is quite intentional and low-screen. We do not use TV or phones for her entertainment, so it is important that anyone staying with us is comfortable with that. It is also important to us that photos or videos of Sama are not posted on social media. Sama is amazing. She's really communicative and has a very happy spirit.
  We would love to host someone who is warm, mature, respectful, and genuinely interested in family life, childcare, and being part of our playful home. If you're interested in culture then I can recommend lots of events, gigs, galleries, museums to go to! :)
