Our essential support crew!

Roseanne is our centre cook who prepares our meals here at the centre fresh every day. Roseanne works alongside the Healthy Heart Foundation to create nutritious and delicious meals every day. With her laugh and happy nature, Roseanne has a positive relationship with all our children and families.

Karen is our van driver and caregiver who covers the floor during the day. Karen has built amazing relationships with the families who use our van participation service and they always comment on how happy their children are to go in the van with Karen each day and enjoy their ride to and from the centre. Karen has built warm, trusting relationships with all our children and families.

Mary is our centre Administrator, the face and the smile that greets everyone as they enter our building. Mary takes time to talk to families and children and is known for her warm, welcoming nature. Mary is an ace at making sure all our families are able to enrol with ease here at Best Start Pukuatua, and nothing is too much trouble.

These 3 ladies, Roseanne, Karen and Mary, are an essential part of the team and help to keep Best Start Pukuatua running from the front and behind the scenes.
