Great advice! Yes let's forward this to the moms. I prefer to keep the
hacker women at SudoRoom focused on meaningful, hacker-related activities
instead of forcing them into childcare roles.
LOLspace and HackerMoms should have skill set for this kind of thing as
well.

Romy,
Like you, my schedule doesn't permit a full-on tooling up of a class, with
program development AND scheduling AND marketing, plus coordination of
people and resources and topics. If there was some collaborative effort
assuring some level of success (clearly there's not, given the responses
from the list?), I'd contribute.
How/why are you the contact person for this? Can you forward to the
requests to HackerMoms or LOLspace? Perhaps they have more capacity to make
this happen.
Not a secretary and not that great a cook,

I don't know, I don't have the time or skill set to be involved in this. If
you're willing to lead this effort, could you take care of all these
details? Could you volunteer so they stop sending me these requests?
I think it'd be cool if a man handled any child-related stuff. All too
often I see hackerspaces or community groups dump all this work on women,
even women who aren't suited for it. (sort of how usually women end up
doing the secretarial work and cooking)
Best,
Romy

Romy,
Do we have a regular batch of girls who want this?
What are their ages and interests--what are they asking for?
What about cost of supplies--are parents willing to cover this?
