We're thinking about upping sticks and moving to Oakley in Bedfordshire. Currently live in Essex (Harlow-y area)though neither DH or I are from there and we don't have any ties to the area as family elsewhere and friends in different places. Reasons for moving are better quality of life in a village, better schools etc etc. DD is 9 months so don't have to worry about the schools issue for a while yet just being super-organised .
Are we mad? Oakley seems lovely but am I missing something? Does anyone have any experience of childcare availabilty in the area?
Would really value MN's collective opinion...
