Hi there, I'm Niamh! I am a qualified Early Years Educator from Ireland. i worked both in a preschool in Ireland and private nanny, in my own home. My parenting style is gentle and patient. I believe that behind every behavior is an emotion and behind every emotion is a need, and its our job to help children identify that need and acknowledge that all feelings are okay! I am an energetic and friendly person with a huge love for art! I hold a certificate in pediatric first aid. I have three children of my own - two boys aged 9 & 7 and a 3 year old girl. They are super social, gentle kids who love to spend time outdoors and with other children. We like to spend lots of time outdoors, in the local parks, going on nature walks or bike rides. At home, we do lots of arts and crafts, water play and sensory play.I am available Mon- Fri and possibly weekends if necessary. I am also willing to help out last minute - or for special family occasions or evening/night time care. I am available for care in your home or mine.If you feel like i could be a good match for your family, please don't hesitate to send me a message!
