Pasadena, MD

Babies R Us – Someone please tell me how a nursing room can be out of order. A mother writes about this room: “The BRU in Pasadena, MD has a mother’s room with a small loveseat and one changing station.  However, most of the time it says “out of order.” This is also the room where mothers are supposed to go on to try on bras (!).”

Babies R Us – Towson, MD

Babies R Us – Once again, it seems that BRU has good intentions, but the follow through isn’t so great. A mother writes that this store “has a small nursing room in the women’s bathroom. Inside are two changing tables with disposable changing pads to go on top of the padded ones, one love seat, and a diaper pail (Diaper Genie II). I was there the very first day they opened and there were diapers on the floor as the pail was overflowing and there was nowhere else to put them. It appeared that the changing stations might have had diapers on them, but they were mostly gone. It was a bit awkward nursing in there because the loveseat was really small, so the woman who came in after me practically had to snuggle up with me and my baby in order to nurse hers. There is also nowhere to put your diaper bag while you are changing your baby except the floor.”

Babies R Us – Silver Spring, MD

Babies R Us – This facility has a “mother’s room” in the back of the store next to the bathrooms. They have two changing tables and basic changing supplies. They also have a glider and a couch. There are outlets available for pumping moms, but the room itself reeks and is not kept clean. Complaints to the manager have not brought about positive changes.
