In 2018, I launched Dublin City Mum, inspired by my own experiences of motherhood in both London and Dublin. My first baby was born in London, where a local antenatal class gave me a ready-made network of mum friends and a world of activities on my doorstep. After almost a decade in London, we returned to Dublin, and when my second baby arrived, I found myself struggling to find family-friendly things to do. Information online was scarce, and it took real digging to discover playgroups, classes, and event, mostly coming from chats with other mums.
 

As I settled back in, I quickly became the go to person for my friends on things to do with kids. That’s when I had a light bulb moment to turn all this knowledge into something more accessible. With a background in Communications, Marketing and Events creating Dublin City Mum felt like a natural career progression!  I just had to figure out how to build a website, and hey presto DublinCityMum.ie was born!
 

A year later our family set off on another incredible life adventure to San Francisco, but we’re back, and have spent the last year rediscovering our incredible city with fresh eyes and slightly older kids! 

​

Let DublinCityMum.ie become your trusted guide for the best family friendly activities, events and restaurants in Dublin. Whether you’re a local or just visiting, enjoy exploring Dublin with your kids as much as I do.
