I can't make a specific recommendation myself, but there are certainly lots of nurseries/creches/playgroups/kindergartens nearby. You can see some examples on http://tinyurl.com/3bajbz, and more by changing the search term there -- not all of these provide for the appropriate age group, but I saw some do at least. I don't know if the local ones generally deal with visiting children, though I imagine that they'd have spaces during the DebConf period due to regulars being away on holiday elsewhere. If you can get a copy (it's easy to find in Edinburgh but seems to be harder to locate online), you should get the book "Edinburgh for under-fives", which has lots of good information about visiting Edinburgh with children of this age group. > given the fact that I would prefer accommodation and food > at the very same location of the Debconf for avoiding useless travel time > in the city. This year the DebConf talk/hacking venue is right in the city centre, so it's only a short walk to the tourist attractions/parks/cafes/shops with necessary supplies, where your wife might want to go. -- Moray _______________________________________________ Debconf-team mailing list [email protected] http://lists.debconf.org/mailman/listinfo/debconf-team
