' I 've had to take my jumper off and use it as a pillow , ' Mr Cranage revealed , speaking of difficulties he 's faced trying to find a place to change his kids ' nappies . He said he and other dads within the group , based in Melbourne 's south-west , have struggled with the issue for some time , which is even more prevalent for fathers who are primary carers . ' I don ’ t think men would feel that comfortable going into a female toilet to change a baby ’ s nappy , ' Mr Cranage said . The father-of-three said they would like to see businesses get on board and install something as simple as a plastic change tray like the ones installed in most female restrooms . George Kanjere , a member of Northern Dads Group , also in Victoria , is the primary carer for his nine-month-old daughter Ottalie . Mr Kanjere said it is difficult when his daughter Ottalie needs changing when they 're our in public , and often changes her in the park or on a bench . He said there needs to be more accessible facilities for dads everywhere . He said the lack of facilities has been a problem since his daughter was born , but has become more prevalent in recent months after his partner went back to work . 'It ’ s been an issue the whole time , but more recently it ’ s become an issue when I became the primary carer , ' Mr Kanjere told Daily Mail Australia . The 31-year-old , from Prestons north of Melbourne , said he makes sure he is always fully equipped when he leaves the house , but was most surprised when he discovered his university did n't seem to have a family room . He said that it was not only difficult for him , but unpleasant for those around him should he need to change Ottalie in public . Mr Kanjere also said other dads he knew were forced to change their children 's nappies on the floor of the men 's toilets because they had no other choice . Mr Kanjere also said other dads he knew were forced to change their children 's nappies on the floor of the men 's toilets because they had no other choice . ' I do n't really think it ’ s that expensive to install one of those change tables that screw into the wall . ' ( And ) I don ’ t want to go into the women ’ s bathroom because that ’ s the women ’ s space , ' the dad added . Both men agreed that the shift needed to be made to keep up with changing roles of men and women in society , and the implementation of the change tables had no negatives . ' I think this could benefit everyone , ' Mr Kanjere said , adding that while some places had family and parents ' rooms , there were not nearly enough available . 'It ’ s all just about creating new opportunities , ' Mr Cranage said .
