I think we're going to be enrolling our 2.5 year old in preschool starting this fall (eek!). Ideally, I would like her to go twice a week for 2 to 2.5 hours.

We wanted to send her to a Montessori preschool, but unfortunately, they don't accept children under age 3 (she will be 2.5 in September). The larger centers seem to operate more like daycares - I would have to pay for a full day even if I only want to keep her there for a couple hours, and it seems like there's no real curriculum.

It looks like most of the morning preschools in our area are run by churches. We're Christian and churchgoers, so totally fine with us, but I was surprised that there weren't more options available.

Just curious what sort of part-time preschool options are available in your area?
