While changing her youngest son's diaper in the spring of 2006, Sue Wong suddenly longed for a way to make the diaper changing process easier. She was tired of holding up the legs of her wiggly toddler with one hand while with the other hand, trying to pull a new diaper out of the tightly packed plastic packaging, unfold it, and slide it under his bottom.
What she needed was an extra hand. But that wasn't possible. So with her background in mechanical engineering, she conceptualized a diaper dispenser built into the changing table surface that it automatically fed a new diaper for the next change. She also wanted a surface that had fastener strips to hold the diaper flat while changing the baby. So, she got to work and built the first prototype out of cardboard. Thus, the concept of the Ubi changing table was born. |
