Daycare & Preschool Cleaning

Children put everything in their mouths.
Clean for that — without poisoning the air.

Child-safe disinfection for licensed daycares, preschools, early-learning centers, and Head Start sites. We follow the CDC "clean, sanitize, disinfect" hierarchy with eco-friendly products that meet OCC and OECD compliance — and never leave residue on toys.

Childcare Realities

Sanitize the surfaces. Don't poison the children.

Daycare cleaning is a balancing act between killing germs aggressively enough to stop hand-foot-mouth from sweeping the room and using products gentle enough to be safe for two-year-olds licking the table 20 minutes later. Most cleaning services pick the wrong side.

Outbreak Containment

The Challenge

Hand-foot-mouth, RSV, norovirus, lice. One unmanaged outbreak shuts down a classroom and triggers parent panic. Industrial disinfectant overcorrects and creates new health risks.

How We Help

CDC clean-sanitize-disinfect hierarchy applied per surface. We escalate during outbreaks with EPA List N approved products, then de-escalate to gentler day-to-day routines once cleared.

High-Touch Toys

The Challenge

Blocks, dolls, dramatic-play kitchen, sensory bins, board books. Children handle every surface, mouth most of them, and your staff cannot wash 200 plastic figurines twice a day.

How We Help

Toy rotation cycle — wash, sanitize, dry, return — on a documented schedule. Soft toys laundered weekly with allergy-conscious detergent. Sensory bin material refresh per state guidelines.

Chemical Residue Risk

The Challenge

Commercial disinfectants leave residue on tables and floors. Toddlers crawl on those floors. Two hours later they are licking their hands. Most cleaners do not think about that gap.

How We Help

Eco-certified, child-safe products that need no rinse-down. When stronger chemicals are required (post-outbreak), we apply, dwell, and full-rinse before children return — documented.

Outdoor Play Surfaces

The Challenge

Mulch, sand, climbing structures, water tables — outdoor play areas accumulate animal droppings, broken twigs, and weather grime that staff do not have time to address.

How We Help

Weekly outdoor play-area inspection and cleaning. Sand filter, mulch turn, structure wipe-down, bird-droppings removal. Pressure-washing rotation for pavement and structures.

Licensing Inspections

The Challenge

Oregon Office of Child Care inspectors look at very specific things — diaper changing surfaces, food prep zones, handwashing stations, and the documentation showing you cleaned them.

How We Help

Inspection-aligned protocol with logbook documentation. Every cleaned surface, every product used, every dwell time recorded. When the inspector arrives, the paperwork is ready.

Parents Are Choosing Schools

The Challenge

A parent walking through during enrollment season sees floors, glass doors, smell of the bathroom, and the inside of the cubbies. One bad first impression and they enroll elsewhere.

How We Help

Curb-appeal cleaning rotation tuned to your tour schedule. Cubby clean-out, lobby presentation, bathroom restocked. Enrollment-season quality every visit.

The Otesse Difference

Child-safe cleaning that holds up to inspections.

Child-Safe Product Discipline

Eco-certified products as default; EPA List N products only when an outbreak demands it, with full rinse-down before children return.

CDC Hierarchy Trained

Clean (remove dirt) → sanitize (reduce germs to safe levels) → disinfect (kill germs). Different surfaces, different products, different cadence. We follow the science.

Inspection-Ready Logs

Logbook documentation aligned with Oregon OCC requirements. When the inspector arrives, your cleaning paper trail is ready.
