Meet the Team

Catherine Whittaker - Centre Director

Catherine Whittaker

Centre Director

Hello, my name is Catherine, and I am the Centre Director here at Belper Alton Manor.
I joined the Busy Bees Alton Manor family in 2019 where I started as our Senior Room Manager and have worked my way up through our Assistant Centre Director role, to now Centre Director. I have previous professional experience within the Early Years Sector, and I hold my BA (Hons) Early Childhood Studies with Practitioner Status from the University of Derby.
Since joining the fantastic Alton Manor team, we have proudly achieved Team of the Year, Health and Safety Champion award and I was amazingly chosen as one of five delegates from Busy Bees UK to travel to Canada to work alongside educators and explore their educational frameworks. This experience was truly outstanding and one I will carry with me for a very long time.
I have a strong passion for delivering quality environments, education and care for all our lovely families and children to be able to access the best possible start in life.
The team at Alton Manor and myself welcome you to the centre and can’t wait to see you all very soon!
