The 25-year-old has been charged with four counts of child neglect during her time at the preschool in Cheadle Hulme, Stockport.

Greater Manchester Police said the charges are not related to the death of nine-year-old Genevieve Meehan.

Genevieve was killed when Kate Roughley, who was found guilty of manslaughter on Monday, was strapped face down on a bean bag to sleep in May 2022.

The 37-year-old worker was said to have ignored "serious and obvious" risks.

The force said in a statement: "Rebecca Gregory charged with four counts of child neglect from April 2022."

Gregory is due to appear at Stockport Magistrates Court on August 5.
