Also something that needs to be considered is how the childcare is handled. Conference centers are often horrible set-ups for child care. My wife sometimes won’t go places that do offer childcare if the facilities don’t look safe or secure. Often we try to travel with each other to conferences to avoid having to worry about it; but just offering childcare is not enough if you aren’t going to get input from mothers about the set-up and then describe it fully on the website. I don’t know how many times I have been someplace that offered childcare and then found the set-up to be a joke of an after-thought.
