Butterfly Group
Early Years Manager
I'm Rebecca, more commonly known as Beccie. I have two grown up daughters and a younger son. I have lived on Peachcroft all my life and I am proud to be part of a lovely community. This is my first post in management, however I have over 20 years' experience in childcare, a profession I have always been passionate about. I strive to consistently seek ways to improve the quality of the care I, and the pre-school, provide.
Outside of pre-school I enjoy spending time with my family and can often be found with my nose in a book!
Early Years Deputy Manger
Hi my name is Abby. I have always been passionate about working in childcare, and I now have 11 years of experience ranging from birth to 5 years old. I began working for Peachcroft Pre-school in 2020. I really enjoy working here and I hope that I have a positive impact on every child in my care. I started out as an Early Years Practitioner, before taking on the role of Early Years Deputy Manager and SENDCo in September 2024.
When I’m not working, I am busy with my two young boys, who certainly keep me on my toes!
