For many parents, the presence or absence of a convenient diaper changing table can make the decision of whether or not they will frequent a business again. If your clientèle, in any way, tends towards parents, it is essential that you provide a convenient and clean area to change diapers. It takes only one parent being forced to change a diaper on a bathroom counter or floor for your business to earn reputation for not accommodating families.

Providing a infant changing table may be common sense. However, there are several considerations to take into account when choosing which baby changing tables to purchase. Some of these considerations are:
  1. Where will you be placing the table?
  2. Do you need the changing table to blend into a certain decor?
  3. Do you have the needed accessories to promote cleanliness?

Action Steps
The best contacts and resources to help you get it done

Choose a convenient and useful location for the diaper changing table


Second to not having a changing area at all, parents will also avoid a business with an inconvenient changing area. There are several options for changing areas, depending on your available area. While the wall mount baby changing tables tend to be the most popular, there are also countertop models. Some baby changing table furniture suppliers also offer a corner baby changing table style.

I recommend: Hotel and Leisure Living Services offers a wide array of commercial diaper changing table options for all needs, including recessed, wall mounted, countertop, and cabinet-style. NexTag offers a convenient comparison of the best priced corner baby changing table models.

Keep your diaper changing table well stocked for cleanliness


Though many parents prefer to use their own baby changing table pads, they are not always prepared or available. In those instances, it is more sanitary for the business and greatly appreciated by the client to have disposable baby changing table pads available for use. The parents have the peace of mind that their child's bare bottom will remain on a sanitary surface and you will have the reassurance that your changing station remains protected from the contents of wet and dirty diapers.

I recommend: Allied offers sanitary changing table liners as wells a several different models of liner dispensers for organization and convenience. In addition to liners and dispensers, BabychangingStations.com also offers swimpant dispensers, as well as diaper kits and dispensers for additional customer convenience.

Consider the looks of the infant changing table


Because there are a number of baby changing table designs, one major consideration is whether you need to prioritize looks or durability, or if you need them both in equal measures. Businesses with a steady stream of family and parent patronage will usually opt for the less aesthetic but more rugged commercial baby changing table. If you have lower volume parent traffic, and decor is an important consideration, you may be able to go with a more traditional wood baby changing table.

I recommend: Instawares offers a varied selection of commercial baby changing stations. All Children's Furniture sells a wide variety of beautiful and durable wood baby changing tables.

Tips & Tactics
Helpful advice for making the most of this Guide

  • If you opt for a traditional stand-alone style of baby diaper changing table, be sure you adequately anchor it to the wall. This both ensures the safety of your customers and lengthens the life of the table by preventing movement and strain.
