From study and work to family life, the University is creating a more inclusive campus experience for parents and carers.
UNSW is taking a fresh look at the spaces that support our community through the forthcoming Future Campus Experience strategy. The strategy will guide improvements to existing facilities and shape future campus developments to create spaces that better respond to the diverse needs of students, staff and visitors.
Parents’ rooms are one example of this work, with the first phase focused on helping our community find and access the spaces already available across the Kensington campus.
They provide private, comfortable spaces where students, staff and visitors can feed, express, change or care for infants and young children while on campus. They are available for everyone to use, regardless of the building or faculty they are visiting.
Parents’ room locations and access
Parents’ rooms are available in:
- Morven Brown (C20), Ground Floor, Room G51
- Electrical Engineering (G17), Ground Floor, Room G08
- Ainsworth (J17), Level 1, Room 1Q09
- Biological Sciences South (E26), Ground Floor, Room G003
- Science and Engineering (E8), Basement, Room B40
- Health Translation Hub (C29), Level 2, Room 02.002.
Looking ahead, the G25 Education Building will also include a parents’ room when it opens in 2028.
Students and staff can request to add access to these rooms to their UNSW ID card by contacting id.cards@unsw.edu.au.
Visitors can request temporary access by contacting edi@unsw.edu.au.
