In childcare environments, every item of linen – from cot sheets to bibs and towels – plays a role in the comfort and wellbeing of young children. Yet for many childcare centres, managing laundry in-house can feel like a daily challenge.
The good news is that with the right laundry systems in place, maintaining high standards doesn’t need to be complex. At JayChem, we believe that smart laundry solutions should be simple, effective and tailored to your centre’s needs – delivering big results without adding stress for staff.
Why laundry matters in childcare
Childcare laundry must handle frequent spills, food stains and higher-than-average soil levels. And of course, hygiene is paramount, with infection control an ongoing concern for parents and providers alike. Using the wrong wash process can leave harmful bacteria or viruses behind, potentially putting children at risk. That’s why chemical precision, consistent dosing and correct wash temperatures are non-negotiables in childcare environments.
Challenges we see in childcare laundries
Some of the most common laundering issues childcare providers face include:
- Inconsistent wash quality, meaning stains and odours may persist even after multiple washes
- Manual dosing errors such as staff adding too much or too little chemical, leading to poor results or wasted product
- High rewash rates – consuming extra time, energy and water.
Left unresolved, these problems can increase operating costs, reduce the lifespan of linen and even compromise the safe and hygienic environment every childcare centre strives to uphold.
