Coast Kids New Zealand

🌟 Exciting News Alert! 🌟

Hey guys,

Firstly, we want to take a moment to express our immense gratitude for the incredible efforts put forth by Melissa as our interim center manager at Coast Kids Papamoa. 🙌 Her dedication and hard work have truly been invaluable to our team and the children we serve. 🧒👧

As we transition into the next chapter, we're thrilled to announce a new addition to our team. Please join us in extending a warm welcome to Stephan, who will be stepping into the role of Papamoa Center Manager starting next week. 🎉

Stephan brings with him a wealth of experience and a passion for education, physical activity, and sports. 🏫🏃‍♂️🏀 With a background in teaching and a lifelong involvement in various sports, Stephan is well-equipped to inspire and nurture our Papamoa kids. His commitment to personal growth and his enthusiasm for overcoming challenges make him an invaluable asset to our team. 💪

We couldn't be more excited to have Stephan join us, and we can't wait for him to meet and positively impact the lives of our Papamoa community. Here's to an exciting new chapter ahead! 🎉👏

We are excited to introduce Tina Marris as the new Operations Manager at Coast Kids! 💥

Tina comes to us with a wealth of experience in childcare and child development, boasting an impressive eight years in the field. Her qualifications in sports, gym, and as a certified swimming instructor showcase her commitment to providing a well-rounded and enriching experience for children. 🏅💪🏊‍♀️

Tina's dedication to delivering high-quality programs that focus on child outcomes is truly commendable. Her extensive OSCAR experience, including owning her own OSCAR provider for two years and working with many well known After School care providers, makes her a perfect fit for our team.

In her role as Operations Manager, Tina will be responsible for the day-to-day operations, working closely with our program and center managers. Her mission is to maintain the high level of quality we're known for and help guide our transition from a small family-based OSCAR provider to a larger organization. Through this growth, we are committed to preserving our core family values while incorporating the necessary discipline.

Welcome aboard, Tina! We look forward to achieving great things together and continuing to provide outstanding care and development opportunities for children under your leadership. 🌟👏

We want to congratulations Melissa Emily Nichols on her appointment as the new Interim Center Manager at Coast Kids Papamoa! 🎉

Melissa brings a wealth of experience and familiarity with Coast Kids, having initially joined in 2017 and later returning as an after-school care instructor. Her deep knowledge of the organization, her past role as a holiday program supervisor, and her warm and friendly demeanor make her the perfect fit for this interim position.

Melissa's interest in taking on the center manager role, along with her eagerness to learn and grow, presents a fantastic opportunity for her to explore the responsibilities of center management. 🌟

We are committed to providing Melissa with the training and support to help her transition into a full-time role. Melissa, rest assured that you have our full support, and we have every confidence in your ability to develop the skills and capabilities needed to excel in this role.

🙌 Best wishes on this exciting journey, Melissa! 🌼
