Tommee Tippee® Launches Scary Pump Rooms Contest, A Search To Makeover The Worst Lactation Room In America

BOSTON, Jan. 30, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Depressing. Dirty. Cold. These are just some of the adjectives new moms use to describe the places they pump breast milk at work. For years, many breastfeeding moms have been subjected to uncomfortable, uninspired pumping spaces when they return from maternity leave, which can be a real let down. Today, infant and toddler feeding brand, Tommee Tippee, announced their Scary Pump Rooms contest, a nationwide search to find the worst pump room in America…and flip it.

In partnership with Scary Mommy, the number one parenting publisher in the U.S.*, Tommee Tippee is calling for people to share photos of their scary workplace lactation rooms for a chance to win a luxe pump room makeover. Photos can be uploaded to the Scary Pump Rooms website through February 13. Once Tommee Tippee has narrowed down the submissions to four lucky finalists, the public will vote on the scariest room of all. One winner will have their workplace lactation room professionally redesigned and stocked with pumping essentials and Tommee Tippee products. May the worst pump room win!

"Every breastfeeding mom who pumps at work deserves a clean, comfortable, and private space to pump breast milk for their baby," said Jenny Lockwood Mullaney, Vice President of Marketing for Tommee Tippee North America. "We've launched this search as a way to raise awareness of the issue, encourage employers to make improvements to their spaces and, ultimately, to make life easier for new moms heading back to work – whether that's by renovating a pump room or providing a conversation starter for moms looking to have an actionable dialog with their employer about pump room improvements."

As part of Scary Pump Rooms, Tommee Tippee is encouraging workplace managers and business owners to take an online pledge to confirm their commitment to making positive changes to their pump room. The first 100 companies to take the pledge will receive a Tommee Tippee pledge pack, including a Pump and Go Complete Starter Set, bottles, tongue-in-cheek motivational posters, and more.
