I don’t think so. The Death Star was a military vessel, and spouses/children don’t usually don’t get to come along on those sorts of things. Having said that, maybe there would be some children on if there was some sort of christening celebration or school field trip on board at the time of the attack.
No /s necessary, you live in something called The Death Star, a weapon fresh from killing a planet, and you're officially the eggs in the anti-evil omelette.
It's an installation - a miltary base. Guarantee the workers had family spaces / on base housing in it. Considering the size of it, whole cities worth of people.
Is it an installation or a ship? Couldn’t it move around the galaxy to attack different planets? If so, I think it’s more of a ship than a base. Only analog I can think of in our world would be aircraft carriers or battleships, which are commonly referred to as floating cities, yet they don’t have children or spouses living on board.

From what I've heard, one of the darker secrets though is tbat there is sex and sometimes childbirth that goes on.
Not something the Navy usually likes to talk about.
