Can I bring my little bubba with me?
Yes of course! Babes in arms are most welcome. We are mums and we know that some of you might not be able to find a suitable childcare or afford the extra babysitting costs. You are already shelling out your hard earned money to go to our conference. So yes, your little bubbas are most welcome to come and stay with you during the sessions.
Is there free wifi at the conference?
Wifi access is already included in your ticket price. There are a limited number of sockets at the venue though, so make sure to fully charge your laptops, smartphones and not-so smartphones beforehand.
I cannot afford the whole thing but I’d really love to go, any genius ideas?
