To Hot Wash or Not? : Pram Shed | Pram and Buggy Deep Clean London

Ah, the joys of parenthood! One minute you’re admiring your little one and the next—bam!—a stain that seems impossible to remove appears on your most adored items. Spit-up, baby food, fruit juice—you name it, it’s on the clothes, blankets and mattress covers. But here’s the thing: hot water washes might not always be the miracle solution. In fact, they can actually bake in stains, making them even harder to shift.

Before you toss those adorable baby clothes into the wash, take a moment to think about the type of stain. Trust me, a little spot treatment can save you hours of scrubbing.

Organic Stains: The Messy Yet Natural Ones

We’re talking about stains from food, drink, sweat, spit-ups and more. While spit-up is relatively easy to get out, hot water can actually make other organic stains worse.

My Secret for Organic Stains:

Baking Soda, Detergent & Vinegar Paste: Mix baking soda with your detergent, then add a splash of vinegar to form a paste. Apply it to the stain, let it sit for 15-20 minutes, then gently scrub with a soft brush. It works wonders on everything from spit-up to baby food mishaps! You’ll be amazed at how much of the stain disappears. ou may need to work the stain several times to achieve the stain life you desire.

Non-Organic Stains: The Stubborn Ones

These are the grease, ink and oil stains that are tougher to shift. But good news—hot water can actually help with these!

Tackling Grease Stains:

For grease stains, hot water is your friend! It helps break down oils and lifts the stain away. A little dish soap can also help loosen things up.

To Not Wash Or Not?

While it’s tempting to toss everything into the hot wash, it’s not always your friend. Hot water works for non-organic stains like grease, but for organic stains cold water and a good spot treatment do wonders. Sometimes, a little patience and the right mix will save your clothes, blankets, and mattress covers—and your sanity!
