The charges relate to crimes committed between September 2018 and January 2019.
Stephen Thomas, representing Hill, said his client had no previous convictions and asked for the case to be adjourned for the preparation of a Probation Service report.
Sentencing was adjourned until February 25 and the defendant was granted conditional bail.
Hill was told he will have to register as a sex offender.
The prosecution was represented by Eugene Egan.
