    Baby changing facilities

    Baby changing facilities provide a functional, hygienic space to change and clean your baby.

    Many baby changing facilities are co-located with toilet, shower or changing spaces and are in areas that require departmental access. If you’re not part of the department, your ID card may not grant you access to that facility.
