Care Guides
All KidiKit products are fully cleaned and sanitised between uses, but we’d still really appreciate it if you could follow our easy care instructions while you're using an item, and before returning to us. It will help our products last even longer, and further reduce their environmental impact.
For specific information about a product, or if you can't see any instructions below, you can visit the manufacturer's website for care instructions. Alternatively, drop us an email at hello@kidikit.com with any questions, we're happy to help!
Fabric
Mesh, jersey, and cotton covers should be washed in warm water (100°F/40°C) with a gentle, bleach-free detergent. We recommend washing your fabric cover in a laundry bag or pillow case. Do not tumble dry or iron as this could cause the stuffing to be flattened.
Base
Clean with a damp cloth, warm water & baby-safe gentle cleansers.
Cleaning the pump
Please read user manual. Wipe with a clean cloth to clean all debris. Do not wet the machine.
Cleaning pump parts
Please read instruction manuals. Rinse in cold, clear water then wash in warm water using mild dishwashing soap. Wipe afterwards with a clean cloth and rinse in cold water.
Sterilising pump parts
Please read instruction manuals. Use only UV sterilisation or cold water sterilisation. Do not sterilise using microwave, steam, or boiling water, as this can warp the parts, making the pump less effective.
Wash at 30°C on a delicate program and place in a laundry bag. Line dry in the shade (do not tumble dry). Only use a gentle, baby safe and environmentally-friendly, bleach-free detergent.

Periodically, remove the wheels from the chassis and brush off any dirt or sand in the inside axle of the wheel. Do not submerge the wheel bearings in water. Use a brush and water to clean dirt on the wheels.
