So yesterday at Disneyland I ran into the Baby Care Center. I have been to Disneyland a thousand times but I guess never had I with a baby. I wouldn't have given it a second thought unless I hadn't ran into it by accident when specifically looking for a Family Restroom for my mom (which was in the first aid center). I went in and there were two little
candy-stripped old ladies smiling to greet me. They quickly welcomed me and pointed out where to change my son and I ventured in. I look back and laugh because only a theme park catered to dreams coming true would make such a place. There were four little cushioned changing tables with sanitary papers to protect from germs and all that other gross stuff. Each one had it's own little headboard and
shelving for
convenience. It looked straight from a commercial in the fifties that was almost too good to be true. They had a dunking toilet for cloth diapers (another thing from the 50's) mid room with sinks and tiny little toilets and stalls. It was heaven sent
comparative to the stainless changing tables in the restrooms around the park. They even had a quiet place to nurse your baby as well.
Though I didn't take pictures myself, I found pictures from a guru of baby centers Adrienne
Krock. Her website and more information about Disneyland's Baby center can be found at
http://www.mouseplanet.com/. Needless to say I was pleasantly surprised and thought it was the greatest thing since sliced bread. If you have a baby or toddler remember to check it out. Even if you don't it's worth the smile knowing that so much thought went into a mindless task of usually us mothers.
Just curious if anyone knows if California Adventure has one as well. After all, it's been a while since the picture perfect 1950's.
