About

Hi, I’m Deirdre Holland Hannon.

I’m a Behaviour Specialist, Urotherapist, and Registered Nurse and most importantly, a mum of three. I support parents who are navigating challenges with toileting, bladder and bowel issues, and bed wetting. My approach is simple: to guide and support you, not to overhaul your parenting style.

I help you build confidence, understand what’s going on for your child, and make small, practical changes that lead to real, lasting results making family life feel that little bit easier.

I have over 20 years of experience supporting Irish families, as well as working with individuals, community groups, and organisations.

My background includes:

  • A Degree in Nursing (Intellectual Disability) from the University of Limerick
  • A Master’s in Behaviour Analysis from Swansea University
  • Specialist training in Urotherapy through ESPU and ICCS

My work is evidence-based, holistic, and focused on real-life solutions that work for busy families.

Urotherapy can help with:

  • Potty training
  • Constipation
  • Poo withholding and toilet avoidance
  • Daytime bladder issues
  • Bedwetting and night dryness

Specialist Work; I provide Ireland’s first Urotherapy-based parent training for bedwetting and night dryness. My services is recommended by Dr. O’Kelly, Paediatric Urologist at The Beacon for Kids. I’m also the creator of the “Toilet Training: Less Stress, More Success” approach helping parents feel more confident and children feel more supported.

I’ve contributed to media outlets including RTÉ, Mums & Tots, and The Journal, and was awarded Family Friendly Ireland’s Best Digital Communications in 2019.

I also share free resources and support for parents through my website and social media account @deehollhan.

Most Importantly; I understand how overwhelming this can feel. You’re not doing anything wrong and you don’t have to figure it out alone.
