Hi ladies! I'm wondering if there are any DC metro/ MD suburb ladies who could give me some advice/insight/ I don't even know what.

My family (DH, DS + me) currently lives in NYC. My husband has a very stressful and insecure job right now, and has been job hunting for a long time. He got an offer from a company based in Columbia, MD that he is strongly considering taking. Luckily, my job will allow me to transfer (although our offices are in northern VA). I cannot focus on work AT ALL today, thinking of all the logistics and researching commutes and neighborhoods and cars and daycares and the list goes on and on!

I would love to hear from folks- if you were in our shoes, where would you live? We'd like to live somewhere that we could afford 3-4 bedrooms, since almost all of our family would be remote, so we'd want space for them to stay. We'd like to be near good schools, in case we stay there until my son is in school. What does daycare for 1 year olds cost in that area?

There is so much to think about! Any advice, thoughts or words of wisdom are very much welcome!
