biberoneria

English translation: Baby feeding area

GLOSSARY ENTRY (DERIVED FROM QUESTION BELOW)
Italian term or phrase:biberoneria
English translation:Baby feeding area

Marketing - Tourism & Travel / all inclusive holidays -resorts
Italian term or phrase: biberoneria
no context, just a list of facilities available at the resort, such as:
Ristorante, bar, piano bar, piscina coperta, biberoneria, mini club, angolo palestra.

I have never heard of this term before (suppongo sia un neologismo) - though it seems quite a logical term, I've checked google and 'biberoneria' services vary - would you say something along the lines of "baby feeding facility"? or is there perhaps a more decent term.
TIA!

baby feeding room


Explanation:
If it's a baby feeding /changing room it's also called a nursing area, but imo biberoneria just refers to feeding, and hygiene regulations require feeding and changing areas to be separate

Nursing Room /or/ Mother and Baby Room


Explanation:
These should cover both the idea of feeding babies and other baby caring tasks. I am sure that a room like this would not just be used literally for feeding baby from bottle.

Either term would work in my opinion. I have seen both used.


Example sentence(s):
  • "Teen verbally abuses mother who needed NURSING ROOM in Woodlands library"
  • "Debenham's (Magdalen Street) has a MOTHER AND BABY ROOM on the 2nd floor: ask an assistant for the key."

Qualcuno sa cos' è la biberoneria? E' una delle cose da chiedere alla prenotazione se si ha un bambino tra 0 e 2 anni. Lì troverete frigoriferi con latte, yogurt, succhi di frutta, e fornelli per preparare pappe e biberon.

Lots more such definitions on the net.
