The Nursing Moms Nest presented by Riley Hospital for Children at Indiana University Health is one of the newest amenities at the Indianapolis Zoo. Tucked away in the Encounters Area inside our newest exhibit, Flights of Fancy: A Brilliance of Birds presented by Citizens Energy Group, the Nursing Moms Nest offers a quiet place for moms to care for and breastfeed their babies in privacy.
This beautifully designed space includes three comfortable nursing rooms, a changing station and wash area, and an activity area where older children can sit and play while mom is breastfeeding nearby. The Nursing Moms Nest is one of only a few such facilities located at Indianapolis-area attractions and was a top priority for the Zoo when designing the Flights of Fancy exhibit. With the Zoo located in the heart of downtown Indianapolis, the Nursing Moms Nest is also conveniently located near the other attractions within White River State Park.
