#KidApprovedILM

I’ve sadly changed my baby on a bathroom floor, held her on my lap while I ate and decided that I’d seek out which restaurants in town had the mom stamp of approval.

It was easy and simple yet so many restaurants didn’t meet my 3 criteria, which are:

1. A changing table or place to change

2. Booster seats and/or high chairs

3. A kids menu (not a must, but strongly encouraged)

Check out the hashtag #kidapprovedilm for a list of restaurants that I’ve personally visited and verified.
