Organized Rooms and Happy Kids

Kids cleaning – it’s not a sight all parents see every day. You would be so lucky! That’s why some simply ask Andy’s Quality Cleaning to clean their children’s rooms, whether on a regular schedule or on an as-needed basis.

However, we will let you in on our secrets so you and your children can do them together (or the more responsible of the two)!

First, dust surfaces, including window sills and baseboards. Clean hanging and decorative items on the walls, including picture/ poster frames. Dust and wipe down all furniture and fixtures. Vacuum the floors and any upholstered furniture. Make the bed with fresh laundered (warm & soft) linens.

Next. take care of the clutter: Toys, books, dirty dishes, video game controllers … Put everything where it belongs. If you’re not sure where something goes, make a new permanent spot for it. Put dirty toys in a neat pile so you can clean them later: Toys will never get cleaned if you just keep putting them back where they go, right?

Afterwards, clean the dresser, desk and any other surfaces. Put some warm water and a few drops of dish soap in a bucket. Dip a clean cloth in the bucket, and wipe down all the hard surfaces. Or you can use some pre-moistened wipes or rubbing alcohol wipes for sanitizing.
Don’t forget to clean the doorknobs, window sills, bookshelves, computer and other surfaces that collect dust. Dry everything with a towel when you’re done by going over it with a dry paper towel.

For glass, use glass cleaner and a soft cloth or paper towels to clean your bedroom mirror and windows. Newspapers or coffee filters also work great as cloths for clean, streak-free windows and mirrors.

Now that the room is nice and clean, you can kick back and relax! Enjoy those few minutes you have of a mess free and tidy room. We all know it only lasts a few minutes!
