How are you labeling bottles for daycare?

missnacholover · January 2015

We have to label with name and date. Is there a cool product out there that erases like a dry erase board for the date labels? Anyone? I'm googling but finding nothing but stickers and semi-permanent labels. This is annoying me way more than it should.

My daycare says we need name and date, but I didn't put the date on it and they didn't seem to care. I use the orbit from inchbug.com with her name on them (https://www.inchbug.com/custom-orbit-labels.html).

My daycare asked me to label my bottles in the order I want them given (some are milk and some formula), so I bought these at Target and put them on the caps with numbers on them.

We will see how they work as this is Day 1 and no water has touched them.

I always just used masking tape with ds1 because you go through so many

Thanks all! Those inchbug things seem cool!

I love them and they are waterproof. I use the small rectangle ones with name on them. My son is 3 and I've never had one come off his cups/bottles/containers.

Our daycare doesn't make us put the date but I think they have some erase able ones as well. They are super affordable too.

We used the inchbug bands with DS and loved them. We'll do the same for this LO. I guess I would just use tape and a marker for the date. The inchbug clothing and other labels have been great too. They go through the dishwasher and washing machine with no problem.

I used painter's tape (the blue masking tape). It was easier to take off at the end of the day.

You've already gotten some cool recommendations but I'll throw one more in.

I use these dissolvable labels at home to label my pumped milk with dates. I'll probably use them when LO starts daycare. You just run them under water for a few seconds and they come right off

I'd try using washi tape..super cheap, comes in a million patterns or colors, available at Target and any craft store. It's paper tape, so it comes off easily, but you can use it to label almost anything. I use it to label containers with leftovers and I'm planning to do the same with bottles when daycare starts.

Thanks @everydaygirl83 - I'm seeing some cute girly patterns on amazon! I may get this to start. Good tip!

I ended up buying some purple painters tape.
