Kitamoto
Reiko Kitamoto (北本れい子) (56 years old), Ms. Goobers in the Vitello, Phuuz and Dutch dubs, and Yuka in the Funimation dub, is the Nohara family's neighbor in Kasukabe. She loves to gossip so she is frequently seen to be chatting with Misae. She also took in Shiro while the Nohara's had to move temporarily to an apartment. She knows English, which allows her to understand her nephew Robert McGuire well. She is a full-time chef. She also takes care of the Nohara's kids (especially Himawari when Misae leaves her to drop Shin-Chan at school when he misses the bus).
Her surname is a reference to Kitamoto, Saitama.
