I don't know because I don't belong to a guild. This did set me to thinking about the pioneer women who did not have access to child care. Certainly the other parent was working too. Babysitters were an unknown. I remember reading a book about quilters meeting in homes and the child (narrator of the story) hiding under the table eavesdropping on the adult conversation. It was a novel so of course they had no rude behaving child! Oh my the good old days!
