My mom hack for folding laundry is kid-proof, dad-proof, and babysitter-proof – plus my favorite stain remover
A CLEANING whizz has dished the details on how to get stains out of clothes like a pro.
The wife and mother also shared her laundry-folding hack, which won’t be sabotaged by dads, kids, or babysitters.
Jessica Cunningham, 35, isn’t just a wife, mother, and artificial intelligence pro — she’s got clothes-washing day down to a tee.
With one infant son and a seven-year-old daughter, tiny sartorial pieces can often get lost in the shuffle.
She found the perfect way to keep her family’s wardrobe organized — even with potential saboteurs around.
Cunningham also added how she nips stains in the bud with a simple removal tip.
FOLD IT OVER
Cunningham spoke exclusively with The U.S. Sun, sharing her game-changing laundry day hacks.
Small children often means smaller clothing, but this doesn’t faze the wife and mom-of-two.
“I fold the kids’ outfits together,” she told The U.S. Sun.
“So the pants [go] into the matching shirt. It’s kid-proof, dad-proof, and babysitter proof.
“Once everything is folded, I put it all into various sized Ikea drawer organizers that keep everything neat and tidy.”
She added a tried-and-true tip for an end to vanishing socks and other tinier pieces.
“Mesh bags are great for keeping small items from disappearing,” she said.
STAIN BE GONE
Cunningham also enthusiastically shared tips for an even more seamless laundry day.
“Save the big hampers for the laundry room or rooms with multiple people sleeping in them. Use smaller bins for kids rooms,” she said.
She also noted to take careful consideration into what you’re washing well before it goes into the laundry machine.
“Pre-sort your laundry with the larger hampers,” she said. “Separate lights and darks.”
Cunningham pointed out that sticking to the drill can make all the difference.
“Schedule designated laundry days,” she advised.
“This is good for keeping routine [and] don’t forget to include sheets and larger items like bathmats.”
She also OK’d getting the family in on the action to make laundry day move a bit faster.
“Involve your kids,” she said. “Be it by sorting, or folding, or pairing socks, et cetera.”
Cunningham also added a few of her favorite buys to keep her family’s closet pristine.
“Krud Kutter has been the best stain remover for our family,” she said.
Krud Kutter Laundry Pre-Treat is available on Amazon, $6.65.
