Nursing room in
KL & Klang Valley :-
Shopping in KL? Not sure
where to find nursing facilities? Check out these places reviewed by MMB’s
members. (Tks Hanz and Jolene for compilation and editing.)
Thumbs Up for these places!!
1) IKEA
Last week, I went to Ikea and nursed Hanafi there. The changing table was
furnished with toilet-rolls. Wow!! Very comfy - Hanz
For me the most cosy baby
room found so far is IKEA. Hibban was so happy when feeding there, he would
suck then fall asleep. I just continue with my shopping after he sleeps.-

Thumbs up for Ikea!! (mommy
and bb) Best nursing rooms in the country! And it extends to Ikano too, but
the ones in Ikea are much cleaner and better maintained. - Katcheah
2) Jaya Jusco, Mid
Valley & One Utama
I use the nursing rooms in Jusco Mid Valley. It is quite nice but off-peak
hours a bit quiet and lonely. Unfortunately, I have seen many people ‘abuse’
the use of the nursing rooms, e.g. Young ladies trying out stockings, young
boys having a nap and whole families camped there! – Jo
I have encountered some
rude moms who bottlefeed their babies in the Jusco nursing room. Once or twice
I would wait, but occassionaly I tell the moms to go outside and bottlefeed
their babies on the many benches provided. I tell them that the room is for
breastfeeding. Anyway, the signage is a bit misleading as it shows a picture
of a bottle. –Maria Ho
Used to love the one in
jusco, but they changed the sofa to a stool. It's quite uncomfortable... for
the back, and sometimes I slip off the stool! Not to mention that the smell
from the toilet gets to the feeding room. - Anne

3) Metrojaya, Mid
Valley
I personally just love the baby room in Metrojaya Mid Valley. Comes with comfy
(and clean) sofa and cushions (good for novice breastfeeders who need loads
of pillows and stuff to get in a good position.) They also have small toys
scattered around to distract baby. Plus theres a clean sink with liquid hand
wash and hot water dispenser (not that we need it) – Suzany
4) Great Eastern
Mall
The best nursing room would be in Great Eastern Mall. Two separate nursing
rooms with curtains. Two more big sofas in the general area where there's
two changing tables and a sink. I like it as it's SPACIOUS and clean! –

5) Alamanda, Putrajaya
Alamanda Putrajaya has quite a decent nursing room, much to my delight. Two
little rooms with curtains and a booth outside the ladies room. Much better
than most places. - Katcheah
6) Isetan, KLCC
Isetan in Suria has quite a basic room, mainly for changing babies and bottlefeedings
as there isn't much privacy. I just sit wherever there's a place and feed.-
Katcheah
7) KL Sentral
I stumbled upon the Sentral operators, he gave me the directions and I finally
found the nursing room there. Well, it was quite comfy for a quick fix. Most
important is that it is clean. Hanafi was happy and me too. - Hanz
Thumbs down for these places!
8) Carrefour, Mid
Valley & Wangsa Maju(Setapak)
The Carrefour one in Setapak (I think that's Setapak) is locked and you need
to ask the person at the information counter to get the keys from the security
guard to open it up. -Sumay
9) Parkson, Mid
Valley & Sg.Wang
Parkson’s nursing room is quite cramped. And, the colour purple. I felt
like it was the dressing room on the set of Barnet meets Moulin Rouge.- Katcheah
Parkson Sg. Wang baby room
meant for changing diapers and for bottlefeeding only. There’s no chair
for you to sit! - Ipah
10) Starhill Centre
Starhill Centre has a baby room on all floors (but only one is opened all
the time) - changing facilities outside, a room with a sink and one metal
folding chair that is bolted to the floor plus a separate cubicle with toddler-sized
loo next to it. - Suzany
11) Ampang Point
I noticed there are nursing rooms in Ampang Point earlier so I headed there.
Was I fooled! A very smelly toilet stated as the nursing room. There was some
sort of separate space (no doors) along the passage to the toilet cubicles,
one long bench and one standing mirror. That's all. Didn’t find any
other place that looked like a nursing room there, so that must be the so-called
nursing room. - Hanz
12) Berjaya Times
Square
The one in berjaya times is pathetic (or at least the last time I was there).
Only ONE room.. and it's on the 5th floor AND LOCKED. By the time I found
the nursing room, I could have just stayed on the ground floor, have a drink
and nursed. – Anne
13) KL Plaza &
Sungai Wang
Sungai Wang does not have breastfeeding facilities, even the baby room in
Metro Jaya, Plaza Bukit Bintang has been turned into a store room! –
Maria Ho
KL Plaza doesn't have a
nursing room (or I can't find it). – Sumay
