Are you keeping up with a regular baby changing station maintenance schedule? Maintaining and cleaning the diaper changing station in your business’s restroom is essential for providing a safe, hygienic, and welcoming environment for your customers. Regular upkeep not only ensures the well-being of the children using the station but also reflects your commitment to cleanliness and customer care.
From routine inspections to warranty guarantees, this guide will equip you with the knowledge you need to maintain a high standard of hygiene and safety for families visiting your establishment.
How Do I Clean a Baby Changing Station?
Using the right cleaning products on your baby changing station helps maintain a hygienic surface, protects your child from skin irritants, and extends the table's lifespan. To ensure safety, avoid using harsh chemical cleaners that could be harmful with direct skin contact.
Sova recommends using a solution of mild dishwashing soap or a gentle multi-purpose cleaner mixed with water. Apply this mixture to the changing station surface with a rag, then rinse thoroughly with clean water using a soft, clean cloth. Finally, dry the surface with a soft, dry cloth.

Thoroughly clean the entire changing station, paying extra attention to high-touch areas such as safety belts and handles. Consider offering disposable liners for guests to an added layer of hygiene and convenience; in our humble opinion, Sova offers the best changing pad liners on the market!
Routine Safety Inspections
Routine safety inspections are a crucial aspect of maintaining your baby changing table.
- Routinely check hinges, mounting brackets, and fasteners to ensure they are stable and secure
- Ensure that the unit remains securely attached to the wall to prevent any accidents
- Test the safety belt, making sure it locks securely and can be adjusted easily with one hand for convenience
- Provide clear and intact labels of weight limits, to prevent overloading
- Regularly look for signs of wear or loosening that could compromise the table's stability
By consistently performing these safety inspections, you can ensure that your baby changing table remains secure and reliable for guests.
Long-Term Maintenance & Deep Cleaning

For long-term maintenance and deep cleaning of your commercial baby changing station, it’s essential to disinfect all components thoroughly on a weekly or monthly basis to ensure a clean and hygienic environment. Regularly inspect the table for any signs of wear or damage, and replace any cracked or broken parts immediately to maintain safety and functionality. Check that the hinges and opening mechanisms are functioning smoothly, allowing for easy use. It’s also important to ensure that the proper usage instructions remain visible and legible, so you and others can easily follow safety guidelines.
