My baby girl Pray just made her first baby cocoon. How do I go about cleaning the cage. I don't want to harm them or her.

Congrats! You should wait at least 24 hours for the foam to harden, and the you can transfer the egg case to a different container so feeder insects don't chew on it.

 
Well congrats on the ootheca. You will need to let the ooth harden at least 24 hours so it is not damaged, before you do anything, if it was recently laid. Other than that simply clean as you would normally.

If you haven't cleaned her habitat before, the easiest method is to transfer her to a container, clean her habitat, and then return her to it. The ooth once hardened will be okay, I just would leave the ooth and stick it is on alone.
