ALLYSON FELIX TEAMS UP WITH PAMPERS TO CREATE NURSERY FOR OLYMPIANS IN PARIS

Decorated track star and retired Olympian, Allyson Felix is ensuring that athlete mothers have the support that they need in Paris. The mother-of-two is teaming up with Pampers to create the first-ever Pampers Nursery in the Athletes Village at the 2024 Paris Olympics.

“I just knew how difficult it was to compete at the top level after I had my daughter, and some practical things were really hard. And so when I joined the Athletes Commission of the IOC, I really wanted to be that voice for athlete moms, and just take away one less thing for them to worry about in the pressure of competition,” Felix said via statement as reported by USA Today.

According to the IOC and IOC Athletes’ Commission, the nursery is designed for children of diaper-wearing age. It will provide a comfortable and calm environment featuring private breastfeeding space, safe play areas and changing facilities.

This is not the first time the 38-year-old has teamed up with Pampers. She partnered with them to support preemies and their parents by working together to donate up to a million diapers to NICU’s across the country.

“I’m so proud to partner with @pampersus where your purchase at @walmart will help Pampers donate up to one million diapers to @cmnhospitals to support preemie families like mine,” Felix captioned an Instagram reel talking about the drive to raise diapers for NICU’s.

“This work is so personal and special to me. Those weeks in the NICU were some of the hardest times in my life and I’m happy to be supporting families in need – a little help goes a long way!’

Allyson Felix and her husband, sprinter Kenneth Ferguson, are parents to two children: daughter, Cammy and son, Kenneth Maurice Ferguson III, aka, Trey.

Felix retired from track and field in 2022 as the most decorated female athlete in the sport. As a result of her talent, she won 11 Olympic medals, including seven golds.
