We are an employee owned nursery group based in Leicester, with over 25 years' experience in childcare. We offer premium day care for children aged 0 to 5 years. When your child starts at nursery, you want to know that their needs and welfare are paramount to the staff you are leaving them with. We believe that children come first, and we clearly promote this as part of our ethos, starting with staff recruitment.
Our philosophy is to help all children feel settled and happy within our nursery, as these feelings are essential for a child of any age to develop positive self image, and to learn how to learn in a fun and supported manner. All children have the opportunity to grow and develop following the Montessori principles and materials, and the Early Years Foundation Stage.

About Lilliput
Report
It all began in 1994 when husband and wife team, Sam and Paul Graveling opened Anstey Lilliput. A brief history of the Lilliput Montessori family of nurseries, it all began back in 1994 when Sam and Paul opened the Anstey nursery. The success here led to nursery number 2 opening in Glenfield in 1997; Coalville in 1999; Whetstone in 2000; and last (to date!) Leicester Forest East in 2007.
Our Philosophy
Report
The care and early years education of your child is paramount in the minds of the staff at Lilliput. The overall philosophy follows Dr Maria Montessori's principles and theory and the staff have all received in-house training in this respect. The emphasis is placed on child centred learning, with each child recognised and valued as an individual.

Anstey
Report
The Lilliput Montessori family of nurseries began in Anstey in 1994 and in 2005 the nursery was extended into the neighbouring premises which was converted into our Baby Unit and linked to the existing building. The nursery in Anstey was originally the village's Liberal Club. It had an upstairs function room, and hosted many a lively evening for the residents of Anstey for a long time.
Glenfield
Report
Glenfield was the second in our family of nurseries which opened in 1997. It is a small single storey building with 2 home rooms equipped with age-appropriate furniture and resources for your child. Being a small nursery gives it a strong family-like environment where it is easy for all children, parents and staff to get to know each other well and develop positive relationships.
