    I am starting NUIG in sept and I am having a bit of trouble finding a place as most places have 4,5, and 6 bedrooms and its only me and my daughter. I wouldn't have a problem living with others but I wouldn't expect them to live with a 3 year old (although shes very quiet and will be in creche most of the day).
    I am looking for a place on the Upper Newcastle Road or there abouts as its near the creche and I cant drive(Yet)
    Is anyone in the same boat that can give me any advice? thanks

    Look on daft.ie (you can specify how many rooms and the area), galway advertiser , i see a good few 1/2 bed apartments up for rent though i don't know if they'd be a bit expensive and check out the student accommodation forum
    don't worry about finding a place. there's still plenty of time (almost 3 weeks) although it may be a bit harder with a child :/
    you could also look for a place across the river (it's only about a 10/15min into NUIG) on dyke road or in dun na coiribe.

    You could contact the Students Union for advice too, I'm sure they've experience with parents going to college. Maybe the Welfare officer?
