We would like to have these 3 cities as our home base. Stayin in each for 3 days. We would like day excursions with taxi/driver. What would you recommend?

Galway: the Cliffs of Moher/Burren for a day, Inishmore for a day, the Connemara area Kylemore Abbey for a da. These are probably the big three for Galway. Dublin has so much to see in the city that you could spend all of your days just doing the hop on hop off bus tour and locations as well as some museums. Or you could spend two days seeing the city and a third doing a day trip. I did a day trip that included Newgrange, Hill of Tara, Monasterboice. Another popular one is down to Glendalough. I would not use Cork as a home base, Killarney would be closer to a lot of the more popular sights such as a tour to Dingle or Ring of Kerry, as well as the Gap of Dunloe and national park and other locations.

I agree with Anita that I wouldn't use Cork as a stopover. I would change Cork for either Killarney or Dingle
