Before I had baby J, I assessed a country I was visiting depending on how much I enjoyed shopping there and the unique things they could offer me. But now that I am a mother, I rate every country I visit on their "baby-friendliness".
The family recently went to Taiwan for its culture, gastronomic delights, and of course, shopping. The minute we de-planed, I was already doing my assessment. I was very happy that the airport offered a Breastfeeding Room. I naturally decided to check it out. When I got to the room, I was very happy to see that they really considered the comfort of mommy and baby in that room. The room had changing tables, with free Mamy Poko wipes, a dryer, hot and cold water, baby powder, and individual rooms for breast feeding!
I am attaching some of the photos I took there.
The baby-friendliness of Taiwan did not stop at the airport. The malls also had dedicated breastfeeding rooms. Even Guang Hua Digital Mall had a breastfeeding room!
Another nice thing I noticed was sidewalks all had ramps for wheelchairs and strollers! So walking to your favorite night market did not prove to be a problem either!
Taxi drivers also do not rush the passengers. They would also even drive you cheerfully to your destination.
All in all, we had a pleasant stay in Taiwan.
I know how stressful it is to prepare for an overseas trip with a baby in tow, especially for the first time! So, try to choose a baby-friendly country. It will make your first trip a breeze!
