A mother who asked to change her baby in a restaurant toilet claims she was told she would have to go to a nearby Tesco instead . Helen Quinnell took her eight-month-old daughter Molly to the toilets into Cafe Tusk , in Fareham , Hampshire , to change her nappy . Because the Indian restaurant does not have dedicated baby-change facilities , she asked the manager if she could use the ladies toilets , instead using the changing mat she had with her . Helen Quinnell took her eight-month-old daughter Molly to the toilets into Cafe Tusk , in Fareham , Hampshire , to change her nappy , while she and her husband enjoyed a meal at the Indian restaurant . But she claims she was told that she could n't - and was instead told that if she wanted to change her baby 's nappy , she should use the facilities at a nearby Tesco supermarket . The 35-year-old , who was with her husband Daniel , 30 , and her sister Christelle Fowler , said the group paid and left , but vowed never to go back . She said she was left shocked and embarrassed by the incident . Mrs Quinell said : 'The manager said `` we do n't allow it . '' I came out to my sister in shock and said `` they wo n't let me change my baby '' . Because the Indian restaurant does not have dedicated baby-change facilities , she asked the manager if she could use the ladies toilets using the changing mat she had with her . She claims she was told no . ' I could n't believe it and I would n't go back there again ever . 'It made me feel really insecure . Never in my life would I leave a dirty baby . ' Restaurant manager Mosud Ahmed apologised and said the incident was a misunderstanding . He added : 'It is a misunderstanding . We do not have a baby change room but most people change in the ladies , so we let them do it . 'The waiter was just trying to say that there is a dedicated baby change room at Tesco if they preferred . 'They can change in the toilet but there is not much room . We have a ladies , a gents and a disabled but no baby-change room . 'There are lots of families that have come in here and nobody has complained in nine years . ' Claims she was told that if she wanted to change her baby 's nappy , she should use the facilities at a nearby Tesco supermarket.The 35-year-old , who was with her husband Daniel , 30 , and her sister Christelle Fowler , said the group paid and left , but vowed never to go back . Mr Ahmed said that he has spoken to the staff in question and that he will be installing a baby change unit . He said : ' I will put a baby change unit in then it will be easier in future . ' Mrs Quinnell , who is staying with her sister in Portsmouth , added : 'It 's good that they are making changes but I am still shocked by what happened . '
