A co-op preschool usually means that parents are required to do some of the work, so the cost may be slightly lower. This is nice if you enjoy it; might be a challenge for someone who has a long commute and can't easily take time off. My oldest child went to one. There was one teacher and each day a parent was assigned as the assistant. That school closed so my other children in non-co-op schools had two teachers per class. Parents came in to volunteer but it wasn't required or regularly scheduled.

Frankly, there probably aren't a lot of differences between part-time preschools like you're considering, in which case you can just look at what's logistically easiest in terms of start and finish times or proximity to your house.
