Diaper Change Station for Public Restrooms
Changing a child’s diaper is often a hassle, not to mention having to do it in an unfamiliar and public place. The Loon Diaper Change System is designed with both the child and caretaker in mind to aid in the process of changing a diaper in a public restroom from prep-time to cleanup.
The Loon table features an antimicrobial, vinyl resting area for the child to keep him or her comfortable and safe during changing. Entertainment is provided by the embossed balloon pattern and transparent cell phone viewing shelf. The table is easy to wipe clean through its soft and playful form while the curved design feature allows the caretaker to stand close to the child and keep changing supplies within arm’s reach.
The addition of Loon accessories increases productivity before, during, and after changing, reducing the amount of time spent in the restroom.

When she is not losing herself in the world of design, she is hanging out with her dogs, niece and nephew, thrifting, cooking, baking or refinishing furniture.
