Krakow was a ghetto, not a death camp.

Although there was a concentration camp: Plaszow-Krakau, which provided labour for (amongst others) the Schindler factory.

Were women put with children in showers in nazi death camps?

No. The question aludes to a popular misconception; in most death camps women and children were put into rooms which were made to look like showers, but were not. The actual showers were used, but children had no place in a death camp, only adults would work there. Auschwitz as ever is a slightly different story, people who arrived did go to the showers upon arrival and those going into the family camp may have women and children showering together, but there were very few of these.
