English term or phrase: family restroom
Aus der Übersichtskarte für den Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex.

Neben Piktogrammen für Lost & Found, Phones, First Aid, etc. habe ich zwei unterschiedliche Piktogramme für "Restrooms" und "Family Restrooms" (letzteres zeigt Mann, Frau, Kind).

Wikipedia erklärt das Konzept wie folgt:

"Another recent development in public toilets is the "family restroom". Family restrooms are unisex but unlike other unisex bathrooms that allow only one user at a time, the family restroom contains multiple stalls designed for maximum privacy and communal washing area for use by both genders. The family restroom is designed so that a parent with a young child of the opposite gender can bring the child into the restroom with them without the concerns associated with single-gender restrooms."

Wie wird das Konzept in D genannt?

Ganz vielen Dank im Voraus für jeden Vorschlag!

Explanation:
Das Ganze ist ja noch ziemlich neu, und richtig etabliert ist dieser Begriff ganz sicher nicht (nur so um die 50 Treffer bei Google). Aber immerhin.

agree  BrigitteHilgner: Gutes Konzept! Es ist ewig her, aber mein Onkel hat mich als 5-jährige gut abgeschirmt mal im Schwimmbad mit in die Herrentoilette genommen. Das gab eine Aufregung!

  -> Danke, Brigitte! Die Aufregung kenne ich auch vom Besuch der Damentoilette. Aber was soll ich machen, wenn ich mit meiner Tochter unterwegs bin und der Wickelraum ausgerechnet dort mit untergebracht ist?
