Change Tables

Diaper changes happen a lot in the first year, so having a dedicated spot can make the day feel smoother. The Brick has to offer change tables that keep wipes, diapers, sleepers, and creams close at hand—so you’re not doing the “one hand on baby, one hand rummaging” routine every time.

A good changing table isn’t just about the top surface; it’s about what it helps you avoid: back strain, clutter piles, and frantic searches for the clean onesie.

What to look for in a changing table

Start with the basics: a stable top, enough room for a changing pad, and storage that matches how you actually change your baby. If you’re the type who likes everything tucked away, a changing table with drawers keeps the nursery looking calmer between changes.

If you prefer quick grab-and-go, open shelving can be handy for baskets that hold diapers and wipes. The main goal is simple: everything you need in reach, without leaning away from your baby.

Change table with drawers

A baby change table with drawers is a favourite for small nurseries because it combines two jobs—changing surface up top, storage below. It’s also great if your baby’s room doubles as a guest room, since drawers help the space look tidy fast.

Look for drawer layouts that make sense: one drawer for diapers and wipes, one for spare sleepers, one for creams and bath items—done.

Dresser change table options

A change table dresser (or baby dresser changing table setup) is a smart choice if you want something that still works once diaper days are over. Many parents choose a dresser with a secure changing setup on top so the piece can transition into regular clothing storage later.

If you go this route, consider a changing table topper that can be attached securely, and keep the changing pad from sliding around.

Small changing table for tight spaces

A small changing table can be the right call in condos, shared rooms, or nurseries that also need a rocking chair. The trick is making the storage do more—use baskets on shelves, hang organizers nearby, and keep a small bin for laundry within arm’s reach.

A narrow changing table can also work well beside a closet so you can store backups (diapers, wipes, extra pads) without adding another bulky furniture piece.

Comfort matters, too

Parents don’t always think about height until week two, when backs start complaining. Many changing tables land around counter height (roughly 34–36 inches), which lets you stand upright instead of bending over for every change.

If two caregivers are very different heights, a dresser-style changing setup can sometimes feel more comfortable, since you can choose a dresser height that fits your home.

Shop Change Tables at The Brick

The Brick has to offer changing table furniture that fits real homes—from drawer-heavy pieces to compact designs that don’t eat up the nursery. 

Tip for faster shopping: choose your storage style first (drawers vs shelves), then narrow by colour (white change table, grey changing table, wood looks) so it works with the rest of your baby room furniture.

FAQs About The Brick Change Tables

Do I need a changing table, or can I use a dresser?

A dresser with a secure changing setup on top can work well, and it often has a longer life in the room once your child is out of diapers. If you use a topper or pad on a dresser, make sure the surface is stable and the baby is supervised during every change.

Are changing table toppers safe?

They can be safe when they’re installed properly and used with a stable changing pad, but they still require close supervision during every change.

What’s a good height for a changing table?

Many are built around counter height (about 34–36 inches), which helps reduce bending and back strain during frequent changes.

When should I stop using a changing table?

Many parents stop when their child reaches the table’s height/weight limits, and some guidance notes many families transition away around age two or when a child reaches about 30 pounds.
