Nestled in the heart of Kent, Badgers Bridge delivers exceptional Early Years care and education for tiny explorers between the ages of 2 and 5. We believe in nurturing young minds through play-based learning and exploration, fostering a sense of wonder and curiosity in every child.
Our Philosophy
Our pedagogy is rooted in two pivotal approaches - the Curiosity Approach and Montessori principles. This dynamic combination fosters a vibrant and stimulating environment where exploration, discovery, and imagination flourish. We encourage open-ended play, where children learn through hands-on experiences.
Our Settings
We operate two charming indoor spaces and are privileged to partner with two local Forest Schools, enriching our learning experiences. Our indoor settings are warm and inviting, with natural materials and cozy corners that inspire creativity and imagination. The outdoors become our classroom as we venture into the nearby woods and explore the beauty of our surroundings.
Dedicated Team
Our team of highly qualified and experienced practitioners are passionate about nurturing young minds. Holding qualifications from Level 3 in Early Years to Masters Degree level, our practitioners are adept at creating a safe and nurturing environment where children can thrive.

We believe in celebrating individual strengths and fostering a sense of curiosity and awe in the natural world.
