Day care waterproof bottle labels

Anybody have any recs?  I bought some off Etsy but they aren't doing the trick.  I don't think they are sticky enough and no way could they be considered waterproof to make it through washings.  I think they are also a little too big for the small bottles we are using now.  Thanks!

    I love the bottle bands from www.inchbug.com .  That way you don't have to label every bottle, you just slap a band around the ones you're using for the day.  They fit most bottles and now we even use them on DS's sippy cups.  Their labels are also great for clothes and his food containers.  They've been through lots of washings.

  • namebubbles.com is another good one - they have nice daycare/school/camp packs that have dishwasher proof and laundry proof ones. They seriously DO NOT COME OFF.

  • Ditto namebubbles

    For bottles, we used a label maker and it stayed on for almost a year before the name began wearing off. Daily, I used masking tape to date the bottle. The tape came off easily and it wasn't a PITA to do every day. Use this in the interim or as an alternative.

  • Namebubbles - they're awesome.  The labels I put on DS's bottles over a year ago are still stuck and still look like new.

  • Another vote for Namebubbles.  I have the Bitty Clothing Labels that I use for both clothing and sippie cups.  They go through the washing machine and dishwasher beautifully.

  • We've been using Whoozems.  So far so good. 

     

  • I use the inchbug ones. They are great because they're removable, and you can use them on sippy cups, and also sports/water bottles later on.

  • Medical tape! You know the kind that you tape gauze on or wrap around a sprained ankle? It will last at least 30 washes!

    I use inchbug for bottles and sippy cups and swear by blue painters tape and a sharpie for labeling food dishes. Holds up well to washing.

  • I used inchbug for their bottles (and then sippies/straw cups a bit when they were older, we didnt supply them to daycare but when I took them to other ppl's houses I used them b/c sometimes ppl have the same ones for their kids etc) and namebubbles for clothes & other misc items they brought to school.
