School Reviews

5  
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.
