​Hi there I'm Nadine a previous Elderhomeshare companion. Growing up in Birmingham I cared for my own dearly love Grandmother. Since moving to Ireland in 2016 I have been blessed to have lived with 2 amazing Elder Home Share women who have taught me so much about Life, Resilience and Iconic moments in Irish history. I became particularly close to Minnie who was 94 when we met. She taught me all about growing up in Dublin in the 30s, 40s and being a dancer in the 50s. Our friendship was so lovely.. To me that is such a wonderful part of this whole program. I also come with my little dog Missy Grá who is a sociable and fully house trained 9kg Cavachon, who goes to doggy day care when I’m working as a Dental Nurse in Dún Laoghaire. I am also a fully licensed EMT so very calm in emergencies and I’m open to joint activities like bingo, short walks, painting, cards or just chats over cups of tea.
