Australian with UK citizenship. If my child is born in Northern Ireland, do they get Irish citizenship?

So I’m Australian with a UK passport. Brexit doesn’t effect me because I have a Greek passport (thanks Mum!).

I obviously can’t pass that off to my kids though. I read somewhere that if a UK citizen is born in Northern Ireland, Ireland gives them the opportunity to take up Irish citizenship when they turn 18.

If I have my kids in Northern Ireland, can I get them that all important Irish (EU) passport?
