Lilliput Montessori Nurseries

To share a little about the history of the Lilliput Montessori family of nurseries, it all began in Anstey in 1994, when Sam and Paul opened the first Lilliput. The success of this nursery led to the second one opening in Glenfield in 1997. Our continued success led to the opening of the nursery in Coalville in 1999, closely followed by the Whetstone nursery in early 2000.



		As part of our brand new website, we now have protected parent areas for each Lilliput Nursery.
The parent area's are designed to inform you of sensitive information and news regarding your child's nursery. It also allows us to post pictures of days out and other activities. If you would like access to our parent area please ask a member of staff at your child's Lilliput Nursery.

We incorporate the use of Heuristic Play sessions and Treasure Baskets, as well as Sensory Rooms to give children the opportunity to learn from a full range of sensorial experiences now matter what their age or development level.

The nursery Manager, together with owner, Sam Backus-Graveling, oversee the development of the curriculum to ensure that the specific needs of each age group and developmental stage are fully catered for.

All children have the opportunity to grow and develop following the Montessori principles and materials, and the Early Years Foundation Stage. We have a strong commitment to staff training and development, and encourage staff to pursue self improvement through both in-house and external training and qualifications.
