And just to add to Ray's email, I believe all we are expecting is the "irregular" kind of babysitting. At least that goes for our family. As for public liability insurance, it is a basic insurance to be taken by any event organizer anyway, and costs at the very most 500 € (in Germany or France or the US from my experience) for a conference like Wikimania.
