Soma Buena Vista Disc has been perfect for townie, commuter, kid-hauling, date-nite bike for my wife. Rear can be converted to thru-axle, but front is QR. We used locking skewer and it has been no troubles.

These are bread and butter bikes so every manufacturer will make a pretty good version of this. They'll all be priced closely and functionally, they're all what you need.
Go to a shop, ride two of them and decide between those two otherwise you'll reach the bottom of the internet before you find an answer on which one to get. The kid hauling raises an eyebrow to me, that could be a differentiator. How will you be hauling the kid? Trailer? Seat? Will you be hauling anything else? How long will the hauling be? long miles?

Ah, a Riv.
From the sublime to the ridiculous... well, not quite. When we were traveling earlier this year we rode a Pair of Specialized Roll low-entry 2.0's for a day, on loan from a friend. Extremely comfortable ride, very stable, and not slow enough to be bothersome. I was impressed.

And you would think that nutted axles would be even cheaper than QR axles. But in a bizarre quirk in CPSC regulations, non-quick release hubs require a secondary retention device (adding cost), whereas quick release hubs do not.
