Baby-changing table
Definition
A wall-mounted fold-down platform — typically 32 inches off the ground with a safety strap — installed in restrooms or family-restroom changing rooms for diaper changes on infants and toddlers.
Baby-changing tables are required in any restroom built or renovated since the 2016 BABIES Act for federal facilities and most state-funded parks. The table must support 50 lbs and include a safety strap and a fold-up mechanism that does not pinch fingers.
Check both the men's and women's restrooms — older facilities sometimes only put a changing table in the women's room, but newer code requires equal access in all genders' restrooms. Family restrooms always include one. Bring your own changing pad — public surfaces are rarely sanitized between uses.
