<\/a><\/p>\nYou don\u2019t have to worry about doing a deep clean every time \u2013 sometimes just a once over with the upholstery attachment on your vacuum cleaner and a wipe will do the trick, however if it gets damp you may want to invest some time in a proper clean.<\/p>\n
If you and your tot catch yourself in the rain, there may be a chance that mold will begin to harvest on the fabric. Get yourself outside, wear a mask and brush the mold away using a stiff bristle brush. Then sprinkle some lemon juice and salt over the area to get rid of the excess mold. If there\u2019s no sign of mold, cleaning the stroller is very straightforward.<\/p>\n

- Step 1 \u2013 Remove any Crumbs<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
For all those pesky crumbs, you can either get out the dustpan and brush or a hand-held vac – they\u2019ll be gone in milliseconds.<\/p>\n

- Step 2 \u2013 Remove any Stains<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Take a moment to assess the extent of the mess. If the stroller seat and fabrics aren\u2019t too dirty, give them a once-over with a wet wipe. But if you spot stains, some bicarbonate of soda and white vinegar should do the trick. If the seat is super dirty, check the stroller\u2019s washing instructions and if it\u2019s safe to do so, pop it into the washing machine.<\/p>\n

- Step 3 \u2013 Scrub the Straps<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Whilst the seat is in the washing machine, examine all other fabric sections of your tot\u2019s stroller like the canopy and straps. Give them a good scrub with a wet wipe and the bicarbonate of soda paste. Then, rinse it off.<\/p>\n

- Step 4 \u2013 Wipe Down the Chassis<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Take a look at the chassis. A wet wipe should help get rid of anything taking the shine away. If your stroller has leatherette trims, be careful not to take a wet wipe constantly to these parts.<\/p>\n

- Step 5 \u2013 Clean and Buff the Wheels<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
When it comes to the wheels, a dustpan and brush should get clear anything stuck inside it. Give it some elbow grease and scrub away with a wet cloth and hot, soapy water. After the chrome parts dry, buff them up and spray WD-40 on the moving parts.<\/p>\n
Now you know exactly how to clean a stroller, whether it be a regular or deep clean. Remember, cleaning your stroller frequently will make life easier, keep it germ-free, and prolong its usage. Plus, if you ever decide to sell your stroller, you\u2019ll get a higher offer for a well-maintained one!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
Cleaning your stroller is probably not something you want to have to think about, it seems like a big task and therefore one which you will likely want to put off for as long as possible. However, as with most cleaning tasks the more often you do it, and the better care you take of your stroller, the longer it will last and the less of a task it will actually be.
