How to Remove Stains & Spills from Linen Pram Accessories

The Sooner, The Better:
Little messes are part of life with little ones. For the best chance of preventing stains, attend to food, milk, spills and other messes as soon as possible.

Gently blot or spot clean the affected area with a soft, damp cloth rather than scrubbing, as this may affect the natural texture and appearance of the linen-blend fabric.

For more stubborn marks, follow the washing instructions below.

How to Wash Linen Pram Accessories

If a deeper clean is needed see how we recommend washing each product. Avoid bleach, as this may cause permanent discolouration. Frequent use of strong stain removers may also cause the fabric to gradually fade or alter in colour over time. Abrasive cleaners on the vegan leather surface, may affect its finish over time.

Before using any stain remover or cleaning product, we recommend testing it on a small, inconspicuous area first to ensure it does not affect the colour or finish.

Pram Liners, Bassinet Liners & Cosys:
Gently machine wash at 30°C. Washing separately or with similar colours will help maintain the appearance of the fabric.

Baby Bags & Pram Caddies:

Remove any detachable pram straps or hardware before washing. Gentle machine wash at 30°C separately, inside out, with all zippers closed and the item placed inside a wash bag.

Change Mats:

Our change mats feature a wipe-clean vegan leather lining for those inevitable little messes. If a deeper clean is needed Gently machine wash at 30°C and allow it to dry completely before use.

How to Dry Your Linen Pram Accessories

Let It Dry Naturally:
After washing, gently reshape your linen accessory while damp and dry flat in a well-ventilated area.

Do not tumble dry. High temperatures can affect the fabric, padding and overall shape of your accessories.

Skip the Iron:
Our linen accessories are not designed to be ironed. The naturally relaxed texture is part of their beauty, so embrace those soft creases and character that come with linen.

Avoid steaming or applying direct heat to the fabric.

Caring for Your Linen Pram Accessories: What to Expect

Linen-blend fabric is loved for its beautifully relaxed, organic appearance, and part of its charm is that no two pieces will look exactly the same. Over time, you may notice;

Natural Texture & Slubs: Small variations, raised threads or slubs within the weave are characteristic of linen-blend and are not considered faults.

Softening with Use: Your linen-blend accessory may gradually become softer and more relaxed with washing and everyday use.

Subtle Colour Variation: Slight differences in tone and texture are a natural part of linen-blend fabrics and give each piece its individual character.

Gentle Fading: Like many natural-look textiles, prolonged exposure to direct sunlight may cause colours to soften or fade over time. When possible, avoid leaving your linen-blend accessories in strong, direct sunlight for extended periods.These characteristics are all part of what gives linen-blend its timeless, lived-in beauty.

Safe Use, Always

Check the Fit:
When using a pram or bassinet liner, always ensure it is positioned correctly and securely within your pram or bassinet before placing your little one inside.

Liners and accessories should never obstruct your pram's harness, ventilation, buckles, fastening points or other safety features. Always secure your child using the pram manufacturer's recommended restraint system.

Check Before Each Adventure:
Regularly check your accessories for signs of wear and ensure straps, zippers, fastenings and attachments are secure before use.

Storage Tips

Store Clean & Dry:
If you're putting your linen accessories away for a while, make sure they are completely clean and dry first. Store them in a cool, dry and well-ventilated space away from excess moisture and prolonged direct sunlight.

Help Them Keep Their Shape:
Avoid placing heavy items on top of padded accessories during storage, as prolonged pressure may compress the padding or affect their shape.

For baby bags and pram caddies, empty all pockets before storing and leave zippers slightly open to allow airflow.
