Description
Hello and welcome!
We are a warm and welcoming family based in Navan, County Meath, just 40 minutes from Dublin. Our home has a relaxed, friendly atmosphere, and we love meeting people from all over the world who are curious about Irish life and culture.
Our household runs at a gentle, happy pace, and we’d love an extra pair of hands to help keep things ticking along.
We’re looking for someone reliable, positive, and fun who can help out for a few hours in the mornings with light household tasks — tidying, organising and occasionally help in the evenings with childminding while I’m at classes. My daughter is kind, sensitive and loves to chat, so someone who enjoys engaging with children and has a cheerful, caring nature would be perfect.
The rest of your day is your own — free to explore the town, visit local heritage sites, or hop on the bus to Dublin or the coast. Navan is well connected, full of cafés, history, and green spaces.
In exchange for your help, we offer comfortable accommodation, home-cooked meals, and the chance to experience genuine Irish family life. We believe in the spirit of cultural exchange — sharing stories, learning from each other, and creating memories that last.
If you’re enthusiastic, open-minded, and enjoy being part of family life, we’d be delighted to welcome you into our home. ☘️

Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
You’ll have plenty of chances to immerse yourself in local culture from daily morning walks with me and the dog to day trips to nearby heritage sites like the Hill of Tara, Trim Castle, or even Dublin City.
So, all in all, you'll become more independent, maybe learn new skills, deepen cultural understanding, and bring home cherished memories of your time in Ireland.
Au Pair Help
This host has let us know they’ll be complying with Irish regulations for au pair stays.here
Projects involving children
This project could involve children. For more information see our guidelines and tips here.
Help
Your key responsibilities will include:
Keeping our home tidy and organised: Helping with general housework such as cleaning, vacuuming, dusting, folding clothes, and keeping bedrooms and kitchen area clean and tidy every day.
Walking the dog: We have a friendly dog who loves a good stroll. You’ll take them for a walk in the morning after the housework and again in the evening before bed. Please note that in Ireland, it’s a legal requirement to pick up after your dog — so we’ll provide everything you need for that.
Occasional childcare: A few evenings a week, I may need you to spend time with my daughter while I attend classes. She’s great company — creative, chatty, and loves engaging activities — so someone fun and patient will fit right in.
We’re looking for someone responsible, cheerful, and easy-going; someone who takes pride in their work but also enjoys laughter, conversation, and being part of a warm family home.

English: Fluent
Accommodation
You will have your own private room in our home and private bathroom facilities.
What else ...
Exploring Ireland
Navan is a fantastic base for anyone keen to explore Ireland. Located in the heart of County Meath, you’ll find plenty of history, culture and outdoor activities right on your doorstep.
Nearby attractions include Trim Castle, the Hill of Tara, Slane Castle, Bective Abbey, the Boyne Valley and many beautiful walking routes. For something a little different, Emerald Park is just a short journey away.
There is plenty to do locally too, with cafés, shops, a swimming pool, library, cinema and community events throughout the year. English conversation classes are often held in the local library on Tuesday and Thursday evenings, although you should make enquiries directly before travelling to ensure places are available.
Our home works best when everyone has a good balance between helping out and enjoying their own independence. You’re very welcome to use our house as a base for exploring Ireland, meeting friends and making the most of your free time.
When you’re helping in the home, you’ll be treated as part of the family and meals will be provided. On days when you’re travelling independently or taking time away, you’ll be responsible for your own arrangements.
We are also happy for Workawayers to take holidays or spend time travelling during their stay, provided this is discussed and agreed well in advance.
If you’ve read our profile carefully, please include the words “Here to Help” in the subject line of your message. It helps us know you’ve taken the time to read and understand what we’re looking for.
We look forward to hearing from someone who is independent, trustworthy, enjoys family life and is excited to experience Ireland from a local perspective.

Teddy (4 years)
Teddy likes to be left on his own, but hates to be alone.
He doesnt like to be picked up, but he loves to be in your company and will join you for cuddles when he is comfortable in your company.
Teddy is very much the boss of the house. He doesnt like cats or the postman.
He loves long walks, especially when he can go off leash in the countryside. He also loves his walks around the neighbourhood. He is a very quiet dog, and only seems to bark at night when he wants to go to bed or wants a treat. He is such a great dog!

Marilys has everything you look for in a workawayer.
Marilys always had something positive to say in a bad situation, always said thank you for the smallest thing, worked hard and had a zest for life!
She's hard working, responsible, outgoing and funny, extremely easy going and fun to be around. She helped with everything, from house work to… read more

Ashling and Katie are two beautiful people that you will enjoy staying with. Katie is soo cute and the easiest-going baby I ever met.
The work is easy and often the time schedule is quite flexible.
Thank you so much for having me! Hope to see you again some day!

Katharina spent a week with us at the end of September.
I found her very easy to live with.
She was gentle and kind to my little girl and was always helpful around the house.
We look forward to seeing her again should she return to Ireland.

It was an unforgettable experience for me to live with Aishling and Katie for two and a half weeks in August. Leaving her place and the village and also Dublin felt like leaving home and I knew I would miss the girls and Ireland so much that I would want to go back again in the future. We have been keeping in touch since then and when I was… read more

Having Noemi stay with us in August 2016 was great!
The world with Noemi around was always more bright and more happy.
She was so helpful in the house with her proactive approach and energy to get things done.
Life was so much easier having her around. She was such good company too.
Thank you Noemi for your happiness and love. My little girl… read more

I'll really miss living with Aisling and Katie... they became my family in such a short amount of time. Katie is one of the cutest kids you'll ever meet, everyone she meets comments how gorgeous she is. On top of that, she is a very happy child and rarely cries. I had so much fun taking her on walks to feed ducks, singing all sorts of songs,… read more

She's a positive spirit and injects happiness into a room.
She was great with my little girl, keeping her entertained and teaching her new things. She had the kitchen cleaned without even prompting. It was a real treat to have her around.
