How to Clean and Care for Your Pram Liner

How to Clean and Care for Your Pram Liner

Let’s be real — life with little ones can get messy fast. Sticky snacks, spilt milk, sandy shoes, and the occasional nappy disaster… your pram liner really does see it all.

The good news? Keeping your wonderland4children pram liner fresh doesn’t have to be complicated. With a few simple habits, you can keep it looking beautiful, soft, and comfy for your little one — no professional cleaning, no stress.

Here’s the easiest, mum-approved way to clean, care for, and extend the life of your W4C liner.

Step 1: Check the Care Label (and Know What Yours Is Made Of)

Before popping anything in the wash, it’s always worth checking the care label. Different fabrics behave differently, and treating them all the same can lead to fading or shrinking.

Common pram liner fabrics:

  • Cotton: Machine-washable, breathable, gentle on bub’s skin.

  • Linen: Naturally cool and comfy, though it’s a bit sensitive in the wash and may shrink without gentle care.

  • Polyester blends: Durable but can trap heat—wash cold and always air-dry.

 

W4C Note:
All wonderland4children pram liners are made from OEKO-TEX certified, 100% high-quality cotton fabric with premium polyester wadding, and they are tested for machine washing — so you can clean yours confidently, knowing it will keep its shape and softness.

Step 2: Start With a Quick Spot Clean

For tiny spills or snack smudges, spot cleaning is often all you need.

Try:

  • A soft cloth

  • Mild detergent

  • Warm water

Lightly dab the area instead of scrubbing — it protects the fabric and keeps the colors vibrant.

Step 3: Machine Wash (The Safe and Simple Way)

wonderland4children pram liners are made to be practical — so yes, they’re machine washable.

Here’s the safest washing method:

  1. Gentle cycle (cold or warm water).

  2. Use a mild, baby-safe detergent.

  3. Avoid bleach or fabric softener.

  4. Wash separately from heavy items like jeans or towels.

If your liner has removable inserts, take them out before washing. It helps everything dry evenly and keeps the padding fluffy.

Extra Tip:
Pop your liner in a mesh wash bag to protect the stitching and keep it looking newer for longer.

Step 4: Air-Dry Only

Do not tumble dry our liners - Dryers can be the quickest way to damage a pram liner.  The heat will fatten the padding or shrink the fabric.

Instead:

  • Hang it to dry in the shade.

  • Avoid wringing or twisting.

  • If it feels stiff after drying, lightly hand-roll it or use a warm iron with a cloth placed on top.

Air drying helps your W4C liner stay soft, padded, and in shape for years.

I wish I’d found this liner sooner. It covers exactly the areas that need protecting — especially when toddlers decide to throw snacks during walks!
