Twenty eight male and female baby changing rooms will be strategically located at the entrances of the mall and the food court areas on Levels 1 and 2, providing safe and hygienic areas for parents and babies in comfort and privacy.
The space will be equipped with a changing station, disposable changing mats, wash basin and nappy vending machine. In addition, the female baby changing rooms will also be equipped with comfortable chairs for breast feeding.
Yousif Al Ali, Vice President of Mirdif City Centre said that the mall has been built keeping the community's comfort and needs in mind.
"In the past, nappy changing was predominantly handled by mums and therefore provisions for baby changing stations were restricted to female bathrooms only. However, times are changing and given the multicultural population in Dubai, it was imperative to have nappy changing facilities for men too. This facility means more and more fathers can now bring their children to Mirdif City Centre without the worry of where to change them," he added.
Mirdif City Centre is the latest project from the Majid Al Futtaim Group, the name behind flagship developments such as Mall of the Emirates and Deira City Centre. The mall is scheduled to open in Spring 2010 and is built with the community at its heart. In addition to 430 retail outlets, it will offer dedicated community areas, medical clinics, spa, personal grooming facilities, fitness centre and over 20,000 square metres of unique leisure concepts.
