Grab your carrier because these galleries have fluffed their welcome mats for new moms and pops. Nobody will bat an eye when your babe starts crying here. Some spaces even have top-notch amenities like baby bottle warmers, complimentary strollers and private nursing rooms! Flip through our album below for the top museums around the country that make going out with a baby a lot more fun.

Bay Area Discovery Museum – San Francisco, California

Sausalito’s ever-so popular toddler museum, the Bay Area Discovery Museum, saved a nook in their amazing play space for crawlers and waddlers under 42 inches. Their spaces are famous for their multi-sensory fun, indoors and out. Tiny explorers can roll in a meadow-like cushion, and waddle underneath a waterfall before venturing outdoors to splash in the faux stream rock bed and tackle a baby-sized mountain built for daring adventurers.
