Providing childcare during a hacker event would be essential in inviting more mothers, as they usually face many difficulties in finding time and energy to participate due to their parental responsibilities.
HackerMoms space in Berkeley, California, was created to specifically address this issue, providing a playroom, a private space for breastfeeding, as well as childcare. The initiators hacked the concept of a hackerspace to fit mothers (HackerMoms, 2017).
