The purpose of the LILLIPUT school programs is to meet the individual needs of the child as we prepare him/her for further education.
In a safe environment suited to the child's learning needs, we will provide for regular association with other children in work and play.
We will provide for the growth and development of the child's physical and mental abilities under the guidance of qualified, creative teachers.
Each child will be encouraged to explore, discover and create through a multi-sensory approach to learning.
Most important, the objectives of LILLIPUT include the development of a positive self-concept among all children.
This "first school" experience should develop a sense of joy, wonder and curiosity in the world around us.

School Reviews

My child is in the Toddler program now at Lilliput. We couldn't be happier with the program. The Lead teacher is easy to talk to and willing to make any accommodations to help my child have a good experience at school. This is my child's first experience away from home and has transitioned well and loves school. The lead teacher is always willing to answer any and all questions or concerns. I feel happy about leaving my child with such a loving and caring teacher.
