SF Field office: Taking children to interview!

Hello,

I have twin toddlers around 4 years old. Both my wife and I have got the same interview date and time (7:30AM at that) at the San Francisco Field office. Has anyone had experience with taking children to the citizenship interview?

Normally, if the time had been a little later (say 10AM), we would have dropped them at school or at a friends house etc...but not really sure on what do with a 7:30AM appointment (probably need to leave home by 6:30AM).

Any suggestions? Couldnt find any information on DHS website on whether we can bring along children.

Thanks,
Krishna
 
It depends on the DO I would say. When I went for my Interview I took my 11 month old daughter and since she was sleeping in the Car Carrier the IO told me it was fine but usually we don't allow children because their offices are not very big and it would create "chaos" (Her words, not mine) and you could not concentrate on your Interview and everything that comes with it but I am sure I have heard here before that people took them with them.
 
i suggest take them and request the interviews to be a bit staggered. they are very accomodative and nice. one of you can take care while other one is in the interview..

dont sweat over it ..
