The situation has come up a few times during the past years. I usually start with looking at the baby/child and saying something like "hi there cutie", then looking at the mom/dad/parents and say "My (our) children are from Guatemala, is yours? (...is yours from China, etc.). That usually opens the door and sometimes a conversation starts, sometimes it's just a hello. People have approached me in a similiar manner and I've always liked the "connection". Best wishes.
