It's also worth dropping your saddle height until you've gained confidence. Being able to get a foot down with some of your weight on the saddle reduces the tendency for the bike to twist under you. Also if you're stopping for lights/junctions, rather than track stand, look for a convenient kerbstone to put your foot on.
What's it like riding a bike with a small child in a child seat on the back ? I'd have though it would feel a bit dodgy if the kid starts squirming around.
We have a 2.5 year old staying with us ATM, and we're trying to choose between child seat and trailer for transporting him by bike.
