Why the Baby Care Center at Disney’s Hollywood Studios Is Our Least Favorite

If you’re a parent heading to Disney World, one of the first things you might be thinking about is where to take care of your little one’s needs throughout the day. The Baby Care Centers across the parks are often a lifesaver—providing a comfortable, quiet space for parents to change diapers, feed their babies, and take a much-needed break. But while these centers are generally a great feature of Disney parks, there’s one that seems to be lacking in comparison: the Baby Care Center at Disney’s Hollywood Studios. Source: Disney Before diving into the specifics of Hollywood Studios’ Baby Care Center, let’s quickly recap why these centers are fantastic. Across the four major Walt Disney World parks, Baby Care Centers offer: Private Nursing Rooms: Comfortable chairs and peaceful spaces for breastfeeding or bottle-feeding. Changing Tables: Clean, spacious areas for diaper changes, often with a place for parents to sit. Baby Supplies: Essential items like diapers, wipes, baby food, formula, and snacks can be purchased in case you forget to pack something. Feeding and Seating Areas: Comfortable seating for feeding babies or just resting with a snack.

However, while the convenience is nice, it has several drawbacks that set it apart from the ones

Universal Stella Nova Resort Review

We previewed Universal’s NEW Stella Nova Resort, which officially opens on January 21! We’re here to provide you with all you need to know about the newest addition to Universal Orlando’s resort family! THEMING When we first walked in the lobby, we immediately felt a space vibe. The theming is very galactic! Source: Kingdom Media ROOMS We loved the rooms! The rooms at Stella Nova Resort are 315-square-foot rooms that sleep up to four. You’ll receive incredible views from your room, as the window’s curved frame is an instant eye-catcher! Source: Kingdom Media DINING We noticed that they have a lobby bar called the Nova Bar. This would be a great place to hangout during the day or at night! It features craft cocktails, using enclosed smoke vessels to infuse intriguing flavor profiles into the drinks. Stella Nova’s main dining spot is Cosmos Cafe & Market! There’s a little market where you can get snacks, ice cream, sandwiches and more. There is a bigger cafe right next to it that serves breakfast, lunch and dinner. They offered a few food items for us to try and they were delicious! We tried the Banana-Walnut Buttermilk Pancakes, the Hot Honey Chicken Pizza, Stuffed Croissants and the Gooey Monkey Bread. All were good, but our favorites were the pizza and pancakes! Another dining option at this resort is Galaxy Bar and Galaxy Grill. Galaxy Bar and Galaxy Grill are your places in the sun for satisfying meals and refreshing drinks. Enjoy poolside favorites like burgers, quesadillas
