Nursing Room Design
Vital for New Mothers in the Workplace

Don’t forget about your staff during an office construction project! Talk to Key Interiors about our nursing room design services.
Nursing rooms –– or lactoriums or lactation rooms, as they’re sometimes called –– serve a vital purpose for pregnant women and new mothers in the workplace. Companies of a certain size are required by law to provide private nursing rooms for their employees, but virtually every company can benefit from incorporating a nursing room into their office design. Nursing rooms provide a much-needed space for nursing women to breastfeed and/or pump breast milk in privacy and comfort. Building or renovating your nursing room can significantly boost employee morale and, thus, bolster productivity as well. (Note, that bathrooms are not sufficient to fill the role of a quality lactorium.)
A mother’s room can also be used as a flexible wellness space. This could mean using it for people who have a migraine or feel unwell, to a meditation space, to a Muslim prayer room, to just an area where people can help to handle general work/life balance. Amenities like a refrigerator, soft music, a place to plug in your phone, comfortable seating, and more can help make this room relaxing. Your finishes and fabrics should be fairly neutral and calm. Combined with low lighting, this can give a very zen or calm residential feel where people can just chill out for a little while.
At Key Interiors, our team has years of experience creating comfortable, welcoming spaces for a huge variety of businesses. We can help your organization construct a nursing room from scratch or redesign your current nursing room with meaningful improvements.
