But choosing a baby carrier can be a daunting task for some parents. For me, I have discovered that I am a bit particular with my choice which is why I choose Tula each time I think about getting a new carrier.

Are you a proud Tula wearer probably wondering how to get your Tula baby carrier clean. Well, don’t worry. Since babies are usually accompanied by dirt, these carriers can get dirty and need to be washed. Whether it’s sweat from you, or spit up from your baby, you want to keep your carrier free of germs and dirt.

In this article, we are going to discuss how to wash a Tula baby carrier along with other Tula products. Read on, we’ve got the complete care tips for you here.

Tula Baby Carriers

Tula carriers come in two different sizes known as Standard and Toddler sizes. I bought a Standard in a blue chevron print on Amazon and I have loved it. I also have the baby insert to use before my baby hits the 15 lb. range, and I used it very often when my baby is well, little.

It has a pocket for mom on the hip belt.
Has a hood that helps to pull down over a sleeping baby.
Very comfortable, doesn’t hurt your back, and is quite easy to use!

How To Wash A Tula Baby Carrier

Things You’ll Need:

Microfiber cloth
Warm or cold water
Washing machine
Mild detergent

Just like most carriers, a Tula can be washed in a HE washer. Tula recommends spot cleaning your Tula Baby Carrier and/or Baby Tula Toddler Carrier as much as you can with a soft cloth, soap, and warm water.

Alternatively, you can machine wash the carrier in cold water, on a delicate cycle, with mild detergent then air dry after you’re done cleaning.

Tula carriers can be a bit expensive, so this should be an investment you must protect so it’s not damaged and can still maintain its integrity under the weight of your baby.

For me, the best way to care for my Tula carrier is to spot clean it. I also use mild dish soap on the shoulder straps where my little one has spit upon.

Here are some pro tips for caring for your Tula:

Buckle the buckles before washing them.
Wash in cold water.
Use a delicate wash cycle on your HE washer.
Allow it air dry or dry on very low.
Do not use chlorine bleach or detergents with brighteners. Use free and clear detergent like all liquid laundry detergent.

Why Air Dry?

Drying your Tula carrier, or any material, in the dryer can cause a breakdown of the material due to the high heat the dryer uses.

Drying your materials in the dryer can result in shrinking, which could damage your carrier. Because of this, a lot of people choose to line dry their carriers. Just ensure to dry it inside and away from direct light, to avoid the colors of the material fading away.
