Even without a pandemic, we already give special care to our baby’s clothes. But, with the present situation, doing laundry feels like a life-saving mission that would protect our babies from the virus.
So, how do you properly wash your baby and children’s clothes?
• Pre-Wash Clothes. If you have recently received an order from a baby clothes online store in Singapore, it’s necessary to pre-wash the clothes as you normally would to kill any virus that may have come in contact with the clothes.
• Handle with Care. As an extra precaution, you can wear gloves when handling the laundry. If gloves are not available, just wash your hands for at least 20 seconds with soap and water after.
• Use a Baby-Friendly Detergent. You can use a baby-friendly detergent that has fewer chemicals than regular ones. But, wash the baby clothes using the warmest water setting possible.

Can you use bleach on baby clothes? You can use regular bleach to wash your baby clothes should you wish to. However, just make sure to use it on items that can be safely bleached.
