Breastfeeding on the Go: How to Find the Best Spots in Singapore
Every nursing mum knows that feeling: you are out enjoying Singapore with your little one when hunger strikes.
Suddenly, you are scanning the area for a comfortable, private spot to feed your baby.
While shopping malls and airports have nursing rooms, what about when you are exploring other parts of the city?
We asked our Lovemère community to share their favourite hidden gems, and trust us, these spots are game-changers.

"Private nursing room that is clean and comfy! There's also a play area for toddlers or little ones."
This East Coast spot is perfect for mums with multiple kids. Feed your baby in peace while your toddler plays nearby. The cafe vibe means you can grab a coffee afterwards too. It's the kind of place where you can actually relax instead of rushing through.

Recommend by Elena
"Air conditioned private nursing room with 2 changing stations, hot and cold water dispenser and washing sink. Complete with centralised speaker where you can listen to the mall Chinese New Year songs while nursing. Located near Xiang Xiang Hunan cuisine."
This one's a hidden treasure. Two changing stations mean no waiting, and the hot water dispenser is awesome if you are mix-feeding. The location near good food options? That's just smart planning for hungry mums.
Carlton Hotel Lobby

Recommended by Ria
"It is quiet, not crowded, got aircon and the sofa is comfortable. I was at the Raffles Hotel and Chijmes and these two places are more outdoor. Carlton Hotel is the spot in between that I can nurse my baby in comfort. Just use a nursing cover."
Sometimes the best spots are right under our noses. Hotel lobbies often have beautiful, comfortable seating in air-conditioned comfort. Ria's tip about this being the perfect middle ground between Raffles and Chijmes is so helpful for mums exploring the city centre.

Public libraries aren't just for books anymore. Many branches have dedicated nursing rooms with comfortable chairs and air conditioning. The National Central Library at Bugis is particularly spacious, and most neighbourhood branches have quiet corners even if there isn't a dedicated room. If you have an elder child, it’s the perfect place too.
Nature Reserves and Parks
