Changing The World, One Changing Station at a Time.

This may just look like a picture of Miss E sitting on a restroom changing station, but I assure you that this is not just any changing station. This is Evelyn's changing station.A year ago, while having coffee with a friend, I had to change 10 week old E. With no changing station in the restroom and a complete outfit change necessary, I was not a happy camper. Caribou Coffee took no responsibility and was no help, instead they passed the blame to their neighbors, Brueggers Bagels and management of the building, due to lease issues.

To clarify my stance on it, regardless of what any lease may or may not say, I was a Caribou customer that day and the fact that Caribou did not have necessary changing facilities, nor did they take any responsibility or try to find resolution with the neighboring facility/building, has spoken volumes to me regarding their company and the way they feel about families in their coffee shops. Just sayin'.

All this to say, I did contact Brueggers and we spent along time talking and figuring it out. They listened and last Friday, we paid them an unannounced visit to check in.

Thank you Brueggers for listening to some suburban Minnesota mom and making a change that not only I appreciate but many other parents out there do too. The next time you're in Brueggers Bagels (any one!), be sure and take note of their changing station and thank them for meeting the needs of parents.
