SM City Bataan has been recognized as a Mother and Baby-Friendly Workplace by the Department of Health (DOH) and the Balanga City Health Office for its commitment to providing safe and inclusive spaces for mothers and their children. This recognition aligns with Republic Act No. 10028, also known as the Expanded Breastfeeding Promotion Act of 2009, which promotes breastfeeding-friendly environments in workplaces and public areas.

As part of this initiative, SM Supermalls has established breastfeeding stations and SM Cares Milk Depots across its malls to ensure that mothers have safe, clean, and well-equipped spaces for nursing their infants. These stations are designed with comfortable seating, proper facilities, and private enclosures to offer a quiet and convenient area for breastfeeding.

The Mother and Baby-Friendly Workplace award highlights SM City Bataan’s dedication to supporting the well-being of mothers and children. By adhering to the highest standards set by the DOH, the mall ensures that families have access to facilities that promote health and wellness.

Through initiatives like these, SM Supermalls continues to play a vital role in fostering a healthier and more family-friendly community.
