Prepositions and their phrases may be found just about anywhere in a sentence. For instance, your question contains two prepositional phrases:"What is the position of a preposition in a sentence?"In this case, "of" and "in" were both prepositions followed by nouns to create prepositional phrases. These phrases may be found at the beginning, middle, or end of a sentence. When a prepositional phrase is at the beginning of a sentence, it is usually followed by a comma. There is an example of this from three sentences ago. ("In this case, 'of' and 'in' were both...")

A second prepositional phrase in a sentence that modifies part of the first prepositional phrase.

The first prepositional phrase is "to the end" and the second prepositional phrase is "of the street" where "of the street" modifies "end" so "of the street" is a nested prepositional phrase. I am excited (for the birthday party (for Ashley.))

A non-nested prepositional phrase would be a second prepositional phrase that does not modify part of the first prepositional phrase. For example: Mary ran (to the street) (in the morning.) The first prepositional phrase is "to the street" which modifies "ran." Mary ran to the street. The second prepositional phrase is "in the morning" which also modifies "ran." Mary ran in the morning.
