Britney Corbett
Director of Education
My name is Britney Corbett and I grew up in Dover, Delaware. I currently live in Middletown, Delaware with my husband and our two beautiful children, Arya and Nova. Both of my children attend Beach Babies and I love having them close by and watching them learn and grow on a daily. I have been working for Beach Babies since 2018. I have been working in the early childhood field since 2009 and have loved every minute of it. I graduated from Wilmington University with a Bachelor’s Degree in Early Childhood Education and a Bachelor’s Degree in Education Studies with the focus of Elementary Education. My career goal was to be an elementary school teacher, however my heart is in the early childhood field. My passion is now helping our teachers and staff thrive in their classrooms. In my spare time I love reading, doing puzzles, playing games, and of course making memories with my family and friends.
