The two countries have played each other 15 times in the past, most recently in April 2023, in preparation for Ireland’s first appearance at a World Cup, when America won 1-0 and 2-0.
This double-header will come at the end of the group stage of the Nations League.
Ward said: “We are looking forward to these two games against the best international team in women’s football.
“They will provide the kind of challenge that we need to expose our players to more often.
“As we continue to work on further developing our squad.
“These games will allow us the opportunity to put some of our work into practice in what will be two intense games that we will learn a lot from.”
Ireland are next in action against Greece next month when they play them home and away with Ward announcing her squad on Tuesday morning.
They wrap up their group with a game away to Turkiye and at home to Slovenia.
They currently lie second in League B Group Two, level on three points with Turkiye but ahead on their head-to-head record having beaten them 1-0 in Tallaght in Ward’s first game in charge last month, before a 4-0 loss in Koper.
