Pram Cleaning is Crucial… But we would say that!

When you’re busy with the day-to-day life of parenting, cleaning your pram might not be high on your to-do list. But keeping your baby’s pram clean is more than just about appearances—it plays a crucial role in your child’s health, comfort, and safety.

Prams are exposed to a lot of mess. From muddy wheels and spilled snacks to dribbles, crumbs, and sticky fingers, it’s easy for bacteria, mould, and allergens to build up without you even realising. Babies have developing immune systems, and regular exposure to grime can increase the risk of infections or allergic reactions.

A clean pram also ensures a smoother, more pleasant experience for your child. A dirty or poorly maintained pram can become uncomfortable, with stiff wheels, sticky handles, and unpleasant odours. Regular cleaning helps preserve the materials, prevent wear and tear, and extend the life of your pram.

Start with a full wipe-down of the frame using warm, soapy water. Remove and wash fabric covers (check the manufacturer’s instructions first), and vacuum any crumbs or debris from corners and crevices. Don’t forget to sanitise handles and check wheels for trapped dirt or hair.

Making pram cleaning part of your routine—every couple of weeks or after a messy outing—can save you from major deep cleans later. And if you’re planning to sell or pass on your pram in the future, regular maintenance will keep it in great condition.

In short, a clean pram is a healthier, safer, and more enjoyable space for your baby. A few minutes of care can go a long way in protecting your little one and making your parenting journey just a bit smoother.
