child-free
Without any children
Child-free describes people who have no children by choice, distinguishing them from the childless, who may want children but don't have them.
The term emerged from communities rejecting the assumption that everyone should reproduce: We're child-free and loving it.
Child-free spaces or events explicitly exclude children: a child-free wedding, child-free flights.
