Quick Answer

Hand wash your linen pacifier cubby with mild detergent and cold water, then air dry away from direct heat. Avoid bleach and machine washing to preserve the fabric and shape.

Why Linen Needs Special Care

Linen is a natural fiber that breathes well and resists dust mites, but it can shrink or lose its shape if washed in hot water or tossed in a dryer. The LINEN CUBBY is designed to be lightweight and portable, so gentle cleaning keeps it looking neat and functioning properly.

When to Clean Your Cubby

Spot clean the cubby as soon as you notice drool, spit-up, or dirt. A full wash is needed every 1–2 weeks if used daily. Over-washing can wear down the linen fibers, so stick to a routine rather than washing after every single use.

Step-by-Step Cleaning Guide

  1. Step 1: Remove Pacifiers and Shake Out Debris: Take both pacifiers out and shake the cubby over a trash can to remove crumbs, lint, or dust. Check the interior corners for trapped debris. Skipping this step can cause stains to set during washing.
  2. Step 2: Hand Wash with Cold Water and Mild Detergent: Fill a basin with cold water and add a drop of baby-safe or gentle laundry detergent. Submerge the cubby and gently rub the fabric with your fingers for 1–2 minutes. Do not scrub or twist the fabric. Hot water or bleach can shrink or discolor the linen; stick to cold water only.
  3. Step 3: Rinse Thoroughly Until Water Runs Clear: Drain the soapy water and refill with cold clean water. Swish the cubby gently, then press out the water (do not wring). Repeat until no suds remain. Leftover detergent residue can irritate baby's skin or attract more dirt.
  4. Step 4: Air Dry Flat Away from Direct Heat: Lay the cubby flat on a clean towel or drying rack in a well-ventilated area. Keep it out of direct sunlight and away from radiators or heaters. Do not use a tumble dryer. Machine drying or direct heat can cause linen to shrink and warp the cubby's shape.
  5. Step 5: Reattach and Store Properly: Once fully dry, clip the cubby back onto the stroller, diaper bag, or crib. When not in use, store it in a clean, dry place away from moisture and dust. Storing a damp cubby can lead to mildew; always confirm it is completely dry before putting it away.
