Meet The Team

Becky Ostridge

Becky Ostridge

Acting Branch Manager

I have had several years within the industry, and I joined Baldwins Travel in October 2017. I found my passion for travel when I was in education, going on to complete an apprenticeship. Since then I have continued to progress my career in the travel industry, and have enjoyed travelling to many European destinations including France, Spain, Portugal, Italy and Greece. I’m looking forward to extending my knowledge of destinations further afield in the future. I’ve also been lucky enough to have had specialised training on cruising, and have visited many cruise ships locally which has inspired my passion for cruise. I have a real love for travel and enjoy creating amazing holidays for all my clients.

**Currently on maternity leave**

After a two-year travel and tourism course, I joined Maidstone’s Baldwins Travel in 2011 and then moved to the Cranbrook office in October 2021. During the past few years, I have been fortunate enough to expand my knowledge by visiting many countries including India, Jamaica, Croatia, America, China, Italy and New Zealand – to name a few!

I love exploring the hustle and bustle of different cities, from shopping in New York, visiting Alcatraz in San Francisco, historical attractions in Rome and snowmobiling in Reykjavik.

I’m a keen photographer and I have managed to capture some of the amazing highlights of the Taj Mahal in India, Niagara Falls in Toronto and the Great Wall of China.

Maxine Parker

Senior Travel Consultant

I joined Baldwins Travel in November 2017, wanting a new challenge after working for a specialist cruise line for 11 years. I started at the Tunbridge Wells branch, working in both retail and corporate travel and enjoyed both. In October 2021 I moved to Cranbrook branch and have enjoyed working with a new team and building relationships with the Cranbrook community. I spend my spare time volunteering for Age UK and Folly Wildlife Rescue.

My favourite destination is Galapagos, because of it’s breath-taking scenery and amazing wildlife.

Travel Consultant

I joined Baldwins Cranbrook in June 2024.  I have  had a long career in travel and am delighted to be back working in the industry, having taken a break from it, due to the pandemic. I have travelled far and wide, including the whole circumference of Australia and the length and breadth of New Zealand. I have  lived and studied in both Spain and France, and know both countries very well.

My hobbies and interests are wildlife and history, which both combine well with travel. My favourite destinations are Far North Queensland in Australia, for it’s breath-taking rainforest, and Andalucia in Spain for it’s fascinating history, culture and amazing music.
