I agree it was an amazing experience that I will always cherish! I wish more people could have seen our panel I think we covered some great topics. Hopefully more people will watch and share the recording!
If the conference you want to attend doesn't offer on-site childcare, write to them and ask why. Many conf organizers have told me they thought nobody needs it because nobody had asked!
Do you see a pattern? Many tech events value inclusivity and do their best to help parents attend by providing on-site childcare. We should encourage these events by choosing them over others.
6. attended @acm_chi in May 2022 (2y10m). They had on-site childcare, but only for children >5. For younger kids, they provided childcare reimbursement of up to $1000. I used a combination of my employer-provided backup care days care .com and she was looked after in the hotel.
5. June 2022, spoke at @fronteers 2022. They had childcare at the venue, so it was great too. She was almost 3, so didn't need to feed during the day, but even if she was an infant it would have been fine.
4. September 2021, spoke at @DevBreak21. She was 2y2m. They provided childcare for all attendees, in a room at the venue. She already didn't feed much throughout the day, but I could go see her whenever. It was great.
A nice recap video from @DevBreak21 where @LeaVerou and I spoke, a few weeks ago. It was so nice to be at an actual live event, again; plus the location and organization was top-notch! Would recommend!

I spoke at @DevBreak21 last week and I created a vlog about the experience. It's probably one of the best conferences I ever spoke at! ⚡️⚡️
Thanks for the corona save organization!
