How Disney Is Baby Friendly
Disneyland is a place for everyone, and at Disneyland, they have
thought of everything - including the babies. The Disneyland
Baby Center is located on Main Street, behind the Plaza Inn.
This is not a babysitting service. Instead, it is a place where
you can attend to your babies needs.
There are several characters present in this area, and their
purpose there is not only to amuse your baby, but also to help
you attend to your baby's needs. This area has rockers, where
you can rock and breast feed your baby. No men are allowed in
this room, but they are allowed in other rooms within the Baby
Center. You can warm a bottle or a jar of food, and clean
bottles as necessary. Baby changing tables are available, and
the entire center is very clean and comfortable. There are even
smaller toilets for children who are being potty trained.
You can also purchase emergency baby supplies at the Baby
Center. Diapers cost about a dollar each, and several different
types of formula and baby food are kept in supply, although the
selections are limited. This is Disneyland's way of making sure
that the needs of every guest - no matter how small they may be
- are attended to.
As a parent, you already know that you don't want to have to
carry your child around in your arms all day. You couldn't
possibly make it through the day! You also can't expect your
child to walk all day long. The obvious choice is to have a way
to transport your child - without wearing you or the child
completely out.
Strollers are not only welcome at Disneyland, they are highly
recommended. In fact, Disneyland rents strollers for a
reasonable fee. Strollers can be rented for less than $10 for
the day, and you can get a huge discount on a second stroller if
it is needed. The strollers are clean and well-maintained, but
they do all look alike. Tie something on the stroller, such as a
brightly colored ribbon, to help identify it from all of the
other strollers in the park.
Never leave your child unattended in the stroller, and never
leave any material items of any value in the stroller either.
Even if you bring your own stroller, you should have some easy
way to identify it - there will be other strollers that look
just like it at Disneyland.
