Cot mattresses deal with a lot. Milk spills, nappy leaks, teething dribble and the occasional bout of vomit all end up on a small surface that a baby sleeps on for hours each day. Many parents also inherit a cot mattress from a sibling or a friend and want it freshened before the new baby uses it.
Our Toowong booking line arranges cot, bassinet and toddler mattress cleaning, either on their own or alongside the grown-up beds. Tell us the number and type of mattresses and any marks you can see. You get an upfront price, and we book a nearby independent crew for a time that fits around naps. Morning visits often work well, because the mattress then has the whole day to dry before bedtime. If the cot has a fabric bumper or a change table pad, mention those too.
- Vacuuming of the cover, seams and edges
- Spot treatment of milk, food and nappy marks
- Low-moisture extraction so the small mattress dries sooner
- Odour treatment where needed
- Advice on drying before the cot is made up again
Ask the crew about the products they plan to use and they will talk you through them. Because cot mattresses are thin, they often dry sooner than an adult bed, but give it the full drying time before the baby goes back down. Stand it on its side near an open window if you can. A fitted waterproof cover afterwards helps keep it fresh between cleans.
Plenty of families in Toowong book this before a new arrival or when moving a toddler into a bigger bed. Call 07 3543 2094 to get a price and a time.
