Meet the Irish nanny who raised Donald Trump's children



This is the Irish nanny who helped raise the children of US President- elect Donald Trump.

Dorothy Curry, from Belturbet, Co Cavan, has worked for the billionaire and his former spouse Ivana for more than 30 years.

The kind-hearted carer, who is in her late 60s, is still employed by Trump’s first wife.

Her sister Regina McConnell, in her 70s, and brother Bartley Curry still live in the rural town land of Creeney.

Obviously written while Ivana was still alive. No cheap childcare centres for the Trump kids, although this article from The Atlantic mentions 'nannies'.

Another retro article mentions more than one nanny - https://time.com/4972300/ivana-trump-excerpt/
and also has some pix of the kids, with Junior showing off a kill at about age 12 or so.
