How to Wash and Care for a Toddler Pillow

A washable toddler pillow can make family life easier, but the care routine still matters. Dreamery Coolcloud is designed so the complete pillow can go in the washing machine. The key steps are simple: follow the label, wash as directed, dry it fully and return it to the bed only when it is ready.

Before you wash

Remove the pillowcase if you use one and check the supplied care label. Look for loose threads, stains that need pre-treatment and anything that should be removed before the pillow goes into the machine. Keep the care label with the pillow so the instructions stay easy to find.

Washing steps

1. Read the care label for the selected Coolcloud profile.
2. Place the complete pillow in the washing machine as directed.
3. Use the recommended cycle and detergent amount.
4. Run the cycle without adding harsh chemicals that the label does not recommend.
5. Remove the pillow promptly when the cycle finishes.

Do not guess at a high heat or aggressive cycle. The care label gives the safest instructions for the pillow you own.

Drying matters

A pillow needs to be completely dry before it returns to a child's bed. Follow the label for tumble drying or air drying. If you air dry it, turn and check the pillow so the centre and seams dry as well as the surface. If any part still feels damp, keep drying it.

Between washes

• Use a clean pillowcase and change it when it needs a refresh.
• Air the pillow in a dry, well-ventilated place.
• Blot spills early instead of rubbing them deeper into the fabric.
• Spot clean small marks only when the care label allows it.
• Keep the pillow flat and dry when it is not in use.

Which side should face up?

Coolcloud has a soft-touch side and a breathable cool-touch side. Turn the pillow to the surface that suits the room and your child's preference. The cool-touch side is designed to feel fresher; it is not an active cooling device.

Safety and suitability

Dreamery Coolcloud is intended for children over two who have moved from a cot or port-a-cot to a child-sized bed. Do not use a pillow for an infant or a child under two. If you are unsure about readiness or suitability, speak with your child's healthcare professional.

A repeatable family routine

Keep the care label, a clean pillowcase and a dry storage spot together. When a wash is needed, the same short sequence keeps the job predictable: check, wash, dry, inspect, then return the pillow to the bed.
