Totally Toddler is the best!!! I use it on my daughter's clothes, my clothes, the carpet, you name it! I've found it in the baby isle at the store and on the laundry detergent isle at the store. It's a white spray bottle with a pink label. It works the best of anything I've tried, believe me, I have a home day care and use it all the time.

depends on what the stain is. First try rinsing it out in cold water, maybe with a bit of soap. if you use hot water and the stains are protein(eggs, etc) you will set them and they will never come out. Next is rinsing with stuff like soda water, or baking soda in water or possibly washing soda (stronger stuff like ammonia or borax must be rinsed very thoroughly out of the clothes before they can be used)or bleach(Javex is one brand name) in your regular wash cycle. Some stains will not come out or the materials to remove some stains are so harsh that the cloth will be destroyed or the colours of the clothing will be removed. Bleach is a very strong chemical and most of the instructions for using it recommend using far far to much. Bleach is also a very effective sterilizer, so the clothes are not only going to be clean but also germ free. bleach evaporate away when the clothes are dried. Do NOT mix bleach with ammonia or ammonia type cleaners as it gives off a very serious poison gas if you do.
Try not to worry to much about stains on baby clothing because babies are kind of messy and stains will be a fact of life, also babies grow so fast that you will be getting other clothes often as they grow out of what they have.

What has worked the best for me is pre-treating the spot with baby detergent and cold water, scrub it with an old toothbrush and leave it out in the sun. The stains come right out!

First always use a bib. i could never have enough of them. I've always used Tide. Put some in a spray bottle with water and spray the stains before washing.

Hi, u can try to use soda water and see... it can remove red wine stain more ever just food stain. Soda water is food/drink so should be safe.

I have tried Shout, Oxiclean, and Spray and Wash. They don't work!!
What does work is this stuff called "Totally Toddler". It's in the infant section by the spoons, forks, sippy cups, etc. It gets out formula, food stains, urine, vomit, poop, etc. I swear by it!!
To check where it's available in your area, go to www.totallytoddler.com
