Bailey Tuiomanufili
Funeral Director
Bailey’s path into funeral service began when her dear friend’s passing showed her how much comfort thoughtful care can bring a grieving family. Bailey’s Samoan heritage shapes her approach to her work, grounding it in connection, respect and a deep care for others.
With more than 15 years in relationship management, programme and event coordination, Bailey has sharp organisational instincts, keen attention to detail, and strong cultural awareness. Her calm, gentle presence and ability to hold space for life changing emotions and meaningful conversation allow families to feel truly supported. She takes the time to understand each family, their loved one, their story, their customs and beliefs and ensures every detail is handled thoughtfully so they can focus on healing.
Raised in Porirua City, Bailey now calls Kilbirnie home with her husband, two young daughters, and their English Bulldog who you may spot walking along Lyall Bay beach. Outside of work, Bailey is either cheering on her eldest on a field or stage, gathering whānau and friends to share time and food, or recharging at a beachside sauna.
