Celebrating Breastfeeding
The international parents room sign is now available , providing an alternative to the use of a baby bottle image to designate baby friendly areas in public, and to mark breastfeeding friendly facilities. Of course, breastfeeding can happen anytime, anywhere. The purpose of the symbol is not to segregate breastfeeding, but to help integrate it into society by better accommodating it in public. The sign is suitable for use anywhere other international symbols are displayed: restrooms, airports, bus and train stations, shopping malls, rest areas, hospital waiting rooms, fitness centres, supermarkets, parks, amusement parks, hotel foyers and so on. |
