[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think you are overestimating the amount of religious learning that goes on even in church affiliated preschools. My youngest is in an explicitly Christian oriented preschool and has never learned to cross himself or that Jesus is the Lord.  What does your contact at infants and toddlers recommend? We are in infants and toddlers for a speech delay, and our speech pathologist had good advice about the types of environments that would and would not be a good fit.[/quote]

I get what OP is saying.  We were in a church preschool for two and I was volunteering and one teacher, clueless kept demanding my child do prayer hands (not his teacher) and kept trying to force him.  I walked in and told her we do not do prayer hands in our home and he's Jewish so he does not understand what you are talking about.  They didn't do a lot of religion but it also depending on the teacher.  Some very religious teachers pushed it more than others.  The director was great about it.  I was not ok with my child as he got older being taught that (exposed, yes as others believe but not taught it as our belief).[/quote]

Of course, but theOP is ruling out any religious preschool without looking into the degree to which they incorporate religion into the classroom. Considering that he has needs that are notoriously hard to address in a mainstream preschool setting, I think she should be a little bit more open to different options and then rule them out one by one if they are too religious
