A changing table is a small raised platform designed to allow a person to change a baby's diaper.
Typically made of wood (such as oak or pine), it is often part of a nursery set. The topmost surface is used to rest the child or infant during the changing process while there are usually shelves or drawers to store necessary supplies such as diapers, baby wipes, baby powder and sometimes clothing as a dresser would have.
Many public restrooms have public tables available should a diaper change be required in a public place. They are typically made of hard plastic and rest on hinges so they can be folded into the wall when not in use. Although they are mainly found in women's restrooms, it is not uncommon to find ones that are in men's rooms. They are usually not enclosed in a stall.
