We do not bring kids to the meetup, so we've been doing the sessions
at night when my husband can be with the kids. However I had thought
to add special features to our eventual space to accomodate kids. A
full-fledged day care is not something I'd like to take on, but maybe
desk-shares or discounts with a nearby day care.

Our kids are 3 and 1 and it is a complete struggle to get something
going with kids this small. Granted, I enjoy spending my time doing
what I'm doing, and I'd do it even if I were making no money at it. I
don't want to discourage your wife, but also want to encourage her to
only pursue something if she is totally passionate about it - like
would rather do "it" than watch TV, shop, etc. Because every minute
you're not doing something for the family/house, you need to be
working your venture. It's crazy over here...and really dirty...lol =)

Anyways, just my 2 cents. You can feel free to have her email me
anytime if she has questions or just needs support.

-Heather
