Breastfeeding Room: Ayala Greenbelt 5 VIP Lounge

Ayala gives complimentary use of their VIP family lounge to nursing moms.
The area has wifi access, computer access, sofas, a play mat for kids and a big family bathroom.

It also has two private nursing rooms.
It has a lounge chair and a table beside it.
There are so many things that I didn't like about the area.



First off, it is very had to pump with a chair that is reclined.
You have to sit up straight when pumping or nursing a baby.
You don't lounge around when you download your milk.
The seat even has an ottoman, but it's hard to pump with your feet up there.
The room was beautiful, yes, but functional...I don't think so.

The light in the area was also very dim.
It's good for a sleeping baby, but very hard to locate your pump and other milk items when you are merely pumping.

It had two electrical sockets though, good for charging your pump.

I wish that there were other things in the area, a changing table maybe because the changing table was only inside the toilet and there was only one toilet in the space.
If you have a child who's nappy needs changing, it's hard to wait for a long time just to use the loo.

I hope that they also placed simple things in the area like a box of tissue.
