“I have peace of mind knowing that my daughter is managed by a great team who actually care. The manager follows up on every single important item that needs to be addressed in running the house and in caring for my daughter. And with the training from the Behaviour Support Manager, she is now flourishing.”

I am just so grateful that a my husband is well cared for and safe. I trust him into the care of Manaia staff because I know they care. They are always there for him and very positive despite the challenges with which my husband presents.”
Lynne
I have worked supporting mutual participants with the Manaia Assist team over the past two years. I am genuinely appreciative of their talent and patience for people. The Managers are just as attentive and supportive, speaking with participants as they work on highly complex plans and projects.
I admire their communication styles. I feel heard, valued and respected by them on all matters. In addition, they are great leaders with superior technical knowledge in the human services field.
The Manaia Assist team is approachable and will always put time aside to discuss things and make others feel validated thoroughly.
