As baby swimming becomes increasingly popular, more families are investing in home baby swimming pools. While these pools are now more affordable, proper care can help extend their lifespan and keep them fresh, clean, and safe for your little one.

Here are 4 practical maintenance methods to help you care for your baby’s swimming pool at home:

1. Remove Stains Gently

To remove surface stains, simply wipe the stained areas with a soft towel or brush dipped in toothpaste. The mild abrasiveness of toothpaste makes it effective for lifting stains without damaging the material.

2. Eliminate Odors with Orange Peel

Fresh orange peel can help remove lingering odors from the pool:

• First, clean the pool using a mild, baby-safe detergent.

• Then, fill it with clean water and scatter fresh orange peels into the pool.

• Let it soak for about 4 hours.

• Finally, scrub the pool lightly with a soft brush.

This natural method leaves a pleasant citrus scent and refreshes the pool’s interior.

3. Milk Deodorizing Method

(Optional and Luxurious)

If you're looking for a more natural deodorizing method, fresh milk can also help:

• After cleaning the pool with detergent, pour a small amount of fresh milk into the empty pool.

• Use a soft brush to spread the milk around so it coats all corners.

• Rinse thoroughly with water afterward.

While effective, this method may feel a bit extravagant—use only if convenient for your household.

4. Air Dry in the Sunlight (But Avoid Direct Exposure)

After each use, let the baby pool dry in a well-ventilated, sunny area, but avoid direct harsh sunlight for extended periods, as it can make the material brittle or cause fading.

This gentle air-drying method not only helps prevent odors but also serves as a natural way to reduce bacteria and mildew buildup—ideal for home use.

By following these simple steps, you can extend the life of your baby’s swimming pool and ensure a cleaner, more comfortable experience for your child.
