Babies at work

At some companies, employees can now bring their babies, according to this recent article from The Burlington Free Press .

Zutano, a children’s apparel company, allows its workers to take care of children from 2 months to 12 months while doing their duties in the office, reported staff writer Dan McLean. “Aside from being a cost-free benefit prized by employees, Zutano has found allowing workers to bring newborns to work strengthens workplace connections, prevents parents from taking extended child-rearing leaves and keeps the company focused on its mission of creating playful children’s apparel,” he wrote.

Has anyone ever worked for a company like this? Are there any businesses in the Inland Northwest that allow employees to bring babies? Can people actually get work done at their desks when their babies aren’t sleeping?
