I have my own in home day care ! Are you any where near Cincinnati ? Just kidding about that !
But I would go with the older woman if she is not too old because one she has probably had more experience, two she is only going to be watching up to three children none of which are hers, three when you have your own children it is hard not to show favoritism (been there done that !), I am not sure of the age of your child but the one provider had two three year olds ! Not a good thing for a biter to have older children where he will be easily frustrated and finally the older lady will probably have more patience.

Have you made the providers aware of his biting situation ? With just him and another child or two it may stop. He may not be as frustrated. Many times toddlers bite because they are hungry (not for human flesh !ha!ha!), tired, frustrated, upset about something, or they want or need something but do not have language to express themselves !

Hope things work out for you ! Biting is such a frustrating thing in a day care setting. For everyone !
