No, it isn't!  Okay, we do this at home, but it's our own dirty
stuff....why should mothers be ghettoised in this way? Why shouldn't the
place where you bf be as pleasant and welcoming as anywhere else?

Yes!

I don't really think moms would need to pump at the daycare center as there
is already a lactation room for pumping in an adjacent building.    I'm
thinking they need a nearby sink for handwashing, a rocking chair, stool,
pillow, and maybe a portable privacy screen for those moms who do not feel
comfortable nursing out in the open.  Any other considerations?

That sounds much nicer!
