The staff who work here are fabulous. I’ve had my now 5-year-old attend from 6 months until school and my now 1-year-old has attended from 9 months. They all take their time to get to know your child and you. They’re super friendly and approachable. You can tell they all love the children and the fun activities they set up my children have loved. Preschool room starts to get your child ready for school which is great. Can guarantee the spare clothes nearly every day you pack are worn as they’ve had a great time getting messy and having fun! Wouldn’t send my children anywhere else.

My daughter has been at Lilliput since June 2023 and my niece was there for 18 months before that. I saw how amazing my niece did with them and so Lilliput was my go-to first choice, I have not been disappointed! The facilities are so cosy and comforting, the processes for learning and development are brilliant and my daughter has shown so much development in the last 7 months! This is all down to the staff. Every single one of them is friendly, welcoming, warm and so caring to my daughter, just like they were to my niece. It's a pleasure to see them be so loving to my daughter and she just loves them right back! It's a massive reassurance and comfort to know she is secure and safe and that is the best thing any nursery can provide!

A fantastic nursery with wonderful, friendly staff. My son started in the baby room in September when he was 14 months old. After a few sessions, he was already excited to go to nursery in the morning. The staff built a lovely bond with him so quickly and genuinely cared about him and his interests and needs. He comes out of nursery happy, we can always tell he’s had a lovely day. We always get lots of feedback about his day and there are often photos on the app for us to see what activities he has been doing which is great to see. We couldn’t be happier with the nursery, staff and how our son is growing and learning each week thank you Lilliput.

What a great nursery. My son has been at this nursery for 3 years and has developed in so many ways. The team are professional and friendly with big hearts. My daughter is due to start very soon also and I'm very happy she will be in good hands. I would recommend this nursery to anyone who is looking for a great nursery. Thank You, Team, for your hard work it's very much appreciated.

Both my children now attend the nursery and I wouldn’t send them anywhere else. My youngest has allergies and the nursery have done everything possible to assist with his needs without it being a burden. My eldest loves going nursery and loves all the assistants. He has thrived there and they have certainly got him ready for starting school in Sept 2020.

The staff are amazing, very caring and kind towards the children. They are attentive to their individual needs and have lots of time and patience for the children. Both my children have received high standards of care and could not ask for more. There isn't a good deal of outdoor space but the children have plenty of room indoors and the access to different activities is good. Nothing is too much trouble for the staff, from the cleaner, cook, nursery staff and management - they are all fab!

Excellent nursery! I was hesitant as to whether to send my daughter to nursery as she has always been shy around people she doesn't know so I was quite worried but at the same time, I wanted to do it to help build her confidence ready for when she starts school and Lilliput has done just that! The staff are so lovely and always make sure my daughter is getting involved and enjoying herself. She loves it that much she even asks to go on weekends. It was the first nursery that I visited and I am so happy that I did. 100% recommend.

The convenience of Lilliput Montessori having its own car park is good and opening hours are excellent for working families. The purpose-built nursery has the office window facing the entrance to allow only familiar adults to collect children, spacious outdoor areas and designated pegs area for all children. A no mobile phone policy also helps safeguard our children. Staff are attentive, caring and very friendly. Staff will praise and encourage children to develop to the best of their ability whilst treating each child as an individual learning at their own pace and style. The Montessori areas encourage exploration. Parent handovers are always detailed, and staff will provide cover during busy periods to consistently maintain staff: child ratios. Meals are balanced and varied, and the cook will endeavour to cater for each child as an individual according to dietary needs. The Manager has always been helpful in answering queries in a timely manner. My children are incredibly happy here!

Moving my daughter from her previous nursery due to job change was a big step for us, but the staff here have blown our expectations away. She settled in just a couple of days and comes home so excited about all the things she has done. She loves going here and always talks about her friends, what they do and excitably gets dressed in the morning! Within weeks of starting, it was noticeable the difference in her development and independence, as well as the ability to do new things, such as trying to read/sitting on activities for longer and she can't wait for Forest School! The staff are always friendly, trustworthy and there's such a community feel. She will definitely do Galaxy Gang next year too, so we know the transition to school will be easier and we know we can trust the staff to support her next journey. We can't thank them enough, from the support they've given us through to answering all my questions so promptly to put my mind at rest too. We highly recommend it to everyone.

This is a fantastic nursery that I would definitely recommend. The staff are attentive and caring and very interested in the children. My child started in the toddler room and is now in pre-school. The care in both rooms has been superb. Even when the ratios change as the children get bigger, the level of care remains excellent. I am also very impressed with the forest school sessions that are offered and the learning side of things, phonics, counting etc. When I collected my child a couple of weeks ago, a member of staff was sat with him asking him to pass a certain number of large/small plastic teddies, which had the appearance of a game but was also helping with counting. Overall, a brilliant nursery.

My daughter really enjoys the nursery. Since she has been going she has developed, made friends with other children and staff. Staff are very attentive and caring and appear to understand the needs of individual children. The facility standards are always high and reflect the care and attention. I have already recommended it to friends who now also go to this nursery and very happy!

A really caring environment for my child where I know he is looked after really well. He has all his individual needs met by all the staff who know him really well. Staff are very approachable and flexible and have really helped us with busy family life. I would definitely recommend Lilliput.

I would recommend Lilliput Montessori to anybody and have done so, all three of my girls have gone to the Leicester Forest East branch, my eldest starting in toddlers and going right through to after school club. I find the place to have excellent standards in all areas. My girls love it there so much that I sometimes have problems getting them to leave which goes to show how much they enjoy their time there. The staff have always been brilliant and informative as to what the girls have done each day, from activities they have taken part in, to the food they have eaten to their toileting. The BRILLIANT staff that do such a wonderful job. I've seen all three of my girls come on leaps and bounds since attending Lilliputs and I can't thank them enough for there hard work.

Having to send my child to Day Care was a heartbreaking decision that I had to make when she was only 9 months old. However, I felt so at ease leaving my child there knowing that she was well taken care of, had fun and most importantly was safe. The staff are absolutely amazing and my child always talks about them when we get home. There have even been times where she has refused to come home with me at the end of the day and insisted she wanted to have a sleepover at Nursery! To me, this was the most positive way of proving that she felt safe, happy and at home in their care. Thank you to all of the staff at Lilliput LFE. I would recommend this Nursery to everyone.

I cannot recommend Lilliput Montessori highly enough. Both my boys have been cared for here, one from pre-school through to the before and after school club and the other currently in the toddler room who has been there from 7 months old. The staff are friendly and helpful, the setting is safe and has a nice atmosphere and the management are brilliant and supportive and always there to help. The boys have made some real bonds with the staff there and they make you feel like they care about all the kids they look after. It's a great feeling as a mum (especially when first returning to work) that your kids are safe and happy, but also that the staff looking after them genuinely care. It's lovely not to worry about them at all during the working day.

Our daughter has been attending the Lilliput Group of Nurseries since she was born in 2006. The care and dedication of the staff has been second to none, and they have played a very important part in her life. The environment is perfect for children to learn and develop at their own pace and the children look happy and settled whenever I take her in. We have been using the Galaxy Gang after school and holiday club for the past 6 years and my daughter loves the friends that she has made whilst she has attended. I am very sad that she has now outgrown the nursery and after school club. I would like to thank Lilliput for helping her grow into the confident and able girl that she is now. The staff and management team really are a credit to you.
