Bridge Village Playgroup is an Outstanding childcare setting based in Bridge Village Hall, where it has operated for over 40 years. We provide a friendly, safe, and stimulating environment for children aged 2 to 5 to enjoy their early years of education.
We believe strongly in the importance of play, and support all the children in their development through exploring, investigating, creating, and communicating and the children’s individual needs and interests are nurtured and extended.
We are a charity run by a committee of volunteers.
We are rated Outstanding by Ofsted. Even better, we have been awarded an Outstanding grade in all of the 4 areas that are inspected.
The inspector found “a bubbly and lively environment where all children flourish”. “Leadership within the playgroup is exceptionally strong” and “partnerships with parents are exceptional”.
The report can be found here.
We have spaces available from September 2026!

"I would recommend Bridge Village Playgroup to anyone. The staff are absolutely amazing and as a setting when you walk in, it’s just something so friendly and warm to walk into. My daughter joined else where before and I was really gutted I didn’t send her here earlier. She changed and became more confident within herself. The best playgroup in Kent ” - Nazia
"When the stars align and you find the perfect nursery! My child could not be happier there. They offer a wholesome, nurturing experience and value fostering independence and playing outside in green open spaces. They are literally getting it spot on." Frances
"My son loves it there. As soon as the doors open in the morning, he runs straight in and starts playing with his favourite equipment. He feels loved and comfortable there and he really feels at home there. The staff are well-trained and caring and the support and advice they have offered us and my son towards his development has been outstanding and of the highest quality so far. Thank you so much for all you do!" - Cecile
