- Regular Maintenance: Inspect the bed quarterly to ensure all joints remain tight, especially if your children are active, to prevent squeaks or frame wear.
- Hygiene Management: Use a mattress protector to shield the bed base and mattress from spills or accidents common in younger age groups.
- Cleaning the Frame: Wipe down wooden or upholstered elements with a damp cloth and mild soap; avoid harsh chemicals that could compromise the chemical free environment.
