HANGZHOU, May 21 (Xinhua) -- A map that lists a total of 3,970 baby care rooms in eastern China's Zhejiang province has been published to help breastfeeding moms.
Most of the rooms are located in companies, public institutions, economic areas, parks, shopping malls and transit stations. The map can be accessed on the website of the provincial federation of trade unions.
Facilities for breastfeeding and diaper-changing have long been in short supply in public areas in China.
"The room is not big but very valuable," said a woman surnamed Wang.
Equipped with a table, two chairs, a fridge and other facilities catered toward mothers, each room is around 10 square meters.
The rooms can also be used as venues to organize activities and lectures for mothers, according to the federation.
