I'm currently a SAHM and just applied for a job (it has to do with kids), so being a SAHM comes with experience, so I used that as having personal experience during my gap. For the gap that you are not working; you can always use the experience you gained as a SAHM. If you helped your partner with work, financing, or budget, that all counts as experience. Plus, it makes us good at multitasking. I would put my account as not looking for work just so you don't get calls/emails about job opportunities.
I just hibernated my account.
I have mine on a career break - parenting
I'm in the process of filing for an LLC so I can do small consulting jobs and not have a resume gap. (I know that doesn't answer your exact question, but it's only like $150 to file where I am, so it seems doable and is how I'm managing that professional gap question. [It's a HCOL area, just to put that cost into perspective.])
