Sorry for the delay in responding. WMF will not be able to provide child care services at the venue. The Hotel can arrange for babysitters directly with parents who need this. From registration and looking at WMF travels, it looks like few people are bringing families. For those that are, someone might want to put something on wiki or this mailing list to contact other families about trip, sharing services, etc. I would be happy to put anyone who needs babysitters at the hotel in touch with the right person to arrange this.

Hello all! Will any form of child care be provided at this year's Wikimania? OpenStreetMap's SotM apparently offered some this year (http://openstreetmap.us/2015/03/children-at-sotmus/)
This years Wikimedia Hackathon (https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Hackathon_2015) also had a kindergarten. Looked like a success and I heard several parents say that they might have brought their kids if they would have known it in advance.
