How many kids would be expected to be older than your 2 year old once school starts?
Starting over in a second language buys you some time, so that is a good thing. You have a community there - that's good too. Do you have to sign up for the whole year? Is it worth it to try 2 days at one place and 3 days at another?
Some Montessori are terrific for some kids, and others, not so much.
Can you take a visiting trip before you enroll? It might make a big difference.
One last idea - playdates and your own social life. It's always nice to meet the kids who have local parents to become friends with at your new location. Even though I'm sure you have many friends from 'pre-child' days, it seems helpful to have some friends who have kids who are going through somewhat similar things to what you are going through.
Smiles, and best Wishes,
