Simple Ways to Change a Diaper On the Go When There’s No Changing Table In Sight

1. Ask somebody where they'd suggest taking babies who need a diaper change. 

If you can't find a diaper changing station nearby, ask an employee or someone around you where they'd suggest changing a baby's diaper. If you're stuck in a store and need a place to do a quick diaper change, chances are a store employee will be able to point out a few key locations. Others have probably found themselves in a similar situation before!

2. Take the baby to your car. 

When there's no change table in sight, try your car's back seat! All you need is a flat spot to create space for your baby to lie down to create a great car diaper-changing station.

The KeaBabies Ezee Changing Mat is the perfect item for busy parents. This compact diaper changing station features a detachable mat, compact size, quality padded foam, and detachable straps. This is a must-have item for giving a clean diaper when you're out.

Going to the car can sometimes be even better than using a restroom changing table, because you'll have more room and more privacy. Be sure to pack an extra diaper or two, wipes, and waste bags for car diaper changes.

3. Find a private grassy area where your baby can lie down for a diaper change. 

If it's weather-appropriate, a grassy area can create a great mobile changing station for diapering emergencies. The grass is soft for your baby, and you can use a portable changing pad or make one out of paper towels or an old towel if you have any in your car.

Be sure to keep an extra changing pad in your car if you need to change your child on the floor or ground.

4. Take over a bathroom sink!

When all else fails, you can change baby's diaper on the bathroom sink. While it's absurd that restrooms wouldn't have changing tables these days, you never know!

If you're in a public restroom, you might have to choose between the counter/sink and the floor. If the sink area isn't crowded, you can probably set up near the sink. Babies really don't need that much space when you change them, and having them on a raised surface is probably a bit easier than changing them on the floor (plus, the floor is probably much dirtier!).

5. Recline your stroller. 

Having a stroller that completely reclines might become the ultimate lifesaver when it comes to serious diapering emergencies! Simply recline it as much as it goes, lay baby down!

If you're in the middle of a crowded space like the mall, a zoo, or restaurant, you can simply wheel your baby to somewhere more secluded and change them in the stroller. This isn't always ideal, and can be messy - so be sure to always have extra wipes on hand.

6. Find a changing area. 

If you're out shopping somewhere with changing rooms, these can make great spaces to change your little one. A changing room is often quiet and private - just what parents need for a quick diaper change on the go.

Don't let employees make you feel bad about this - parents need space to change their little ones, and as long as you clean up after yourself, there is nothing wrong with changing your baby in a dressing room.

7. Change your baby on your lap.

Isn't parenthood often about our inability to control battles? If you can't find a changing table or a safe space to change your little one, you can simply lay them on a blanket or towel on your lap and change them there.

Your baby might get fussy when being changed in less than ideal environments. Make diaper changing easier on you and your baby by not letting a simple process escalate. Do whatever you can to entertain your baby and distract them: act supremely goofy, create a game, have a fun exchange, or sing a goofy diaper changing song. With your child distracted, they might stay calm!

Changing A Dirty Diaper In The Car: 

 When changing tables aren't readily available, many parents set up makeshift stations in their vehicle! You can change your child in your car's backseat or trunk, depending on space.

Having a makeshift stations set for changing diapers in the car can also be super helpful during a road trip. You might not always have access to a rest stop or somewhere to pull over and find a changing table, so having necessary items in the car already can keep it from becoming a big deal.

You'll want to keep these supplies on hand to change baby's diaper in the car:

• A couple diapers

• A small package of wipes

• A bag for wet clothes or soiled clothes

• Zip top plastic bags for clothes or disposing of dirty diapers

• A soft pad/DIY changing pad

• Fun activities or toys to keep your baby distracted while you change them
