Pre-treat:
• Examine for stains: pre-treat with The Laundress Stain Solution or The Laundress Wash & Stain Bar. Always treat stains first and pre-soak for most effective removal. If the stain has faded, but isn't completely gone, repeat the process until satisfied.
• To remove dirt, grease, grime, treat with our Wash & Stain Bar. Wet bar and work into the fabric.
• To remove milk, formula, juice, grass, or chocolate use our Stain Solution and Stain Brush.
• To remove odors: pre-wash or pre-soak with The Laundress Scented Vinegar. Apply vinegar directly on odor areas and work stain solution into the fabric. Soak well. |

• Turn your clothing inside out. This prevents abrasion and lengthens the life of colorant dyes.
• Do not mix colors, wash with like colors only.
Machine washing:
• For overall dinginess and really tough stains, soak with The Laundress All Purpose Bleach Alternative in hot water.
• For best results when cleaning baby items launder in hot water with The Laundress Baby Detergent in your machine which is formulated with specific enzymes that target and break down stubborn stains. The Laundress does not use dye, animal by-products or caustic ingredients to be gentle on baby’s skin.
Dry/Finish:
• Do not dry any items that still have stains.
• Hang to dry on a line in the sun for energy efficiency, natural whitening and that awesome fresh line experience…or use the dryer.
Tips and Tricks:
• To sanitize and freshen clothes, bedding, strollers, car-seats, toys, etc. spray The Laundress Baby Fabric Fresh which has anti-bacterial properties and is non-toxic.
• Always carry The Laundress Wash & Stain Bar in your baby bag! It is the most convenient tool for spot-cleaning and getting to those hard to reach areas. It’s also airplane-friendly for laundering on the go.
• Control static and soften baby’s clothing and bedding with our Baby Fabric Conditioner and Baby Dryer Sheets. Stuff the baby bag, drawers, luggage and under car seats with Baby Dryer Sheets to keep them fresh as well. Be sure to not use fabric softener or dryer sheets on baby’s flame-retardant sleep wear, as it can reduce flame-resistance.
• To keep your baby’s endless changes of clothes in order, use The Laundress Hotel Bag - an essential washable bag for home, the baby bag, stroller and while traveling. For long term storage or larger loads of laundry monogram The Laundress Laundry Bag. insert image
