Long-term child care needed for reliable Irish family

We are looking for a trustworthy babysitter to provide long-term care for our two children, ages 4 and 7. The role involves weekday evenings after school, occasional weekends, and some school holiday coverage. Duties include meals, bedtime routines, light homework help, and engaging activities. We value a calm, patient caregiver with up-to-date child first-aid knowledge and references. We’d prefer someone with a genuine passion for kids, who can create a safe, structured routine and liaise with us about the day’s events. If you have an Irish-residency status or a valid work permit, please mention it. Fluency in English required; some basic Irish is a welcomed bonus. Priority given to applicants with previous long-term nanny or creche experience.
