Íte of Killeedy was a sixth-century Irish nun who established a religious community in County Limerick. Born in Waterford, she is often referred to as the foster mother of saints due to her role in raising figures such as Brendan the Navigator. Known for her profound spiritual discernment and ascetic lifestyle, she rejected marriage to dedicate herself to a consecrated life. She eventually settled in Cluain Creadhail, a site that became known as Killeedy, where she lived and led her community until her death around 570.
