Maintenance

First, take all bedding - sheets blankets, toys and lovies from the cot and clean them according to the manufacturer's instructions. Vacuum the frame of the cot with particular attention to corners and crevices. If you have the ability to disassemble the cot, do it to make it easier to reach the tight spaces.

Once you've taken out all bedding then mix a solution made of warm water and mild baby-safe soap, then use a damp cloth to clean the slats and base of the cot. Use a soft cloth to avoid damaging the wood. After wiping the surface, rinse it with clean water and wipe it again to remove any soapy residue. Let the cot completely dry before putting it back together.

Moisture is the bed's silent enemy. It can cause cracking, warping, and bending. To prevent this from happening, keep beverages on coasters and avoid placing potted plants directly on the bed. Also, check regularly and lubricate your hardware to ensure smooth operation and prevent creaking.

Obsessive cleaning can cause harm to your baby. The early exposure to normal bacteria in the environment can help your child develop an immune system. This is why it's important to find a balance in regular cleaning and periodic disinfection.
