I know there was a thread a while back but I can't find it!
How do you label your LO's possessions for day care?
I'm thinking like her bottle I don't really want to write on it with a Sharpie? I'm fine with Sharpie on the clothes/blanket labels...
-
When LO goes into daycare, I will. I hope to find time to make labels and sew them onto her blanket, stay-at-daycare clothes, etc. As for her bottles and such? Not sure...
-
I got labels from Mabel's labels. They are great and do not come off in the washer/dryer or dishwasher.
-
For bottles I use painter's tape and a sharpie.
-
We've labeled the lunch box and water bottle with wall decals. They don't have her name, but everyone knows the doggie stickers belong to Lala. Everything else gets a sharpie!

I bought labels from Oliver's Labels based on a board suggestion!
-
Mailing labels. Find a coupon code for a site like shutterfly then have some cute ones printed up. You don't have to include your address but could make it say something like "this belongs to: ___" with a cute design. They're easy to put on and if it starts to fade off you can slap another one on there.

I bought Mabels labels like Andrea

We used Mabel's Labels also!

Our daycare provides labels for bottles that are "waterproof". We don't label anything else. She has a bin that all of her things go in. We've never had a problem with items getting misplaced other than a pacifier recently. That's the first "lost" item in eight months.
We do write with a sharpie her name on the bottle covers and her tub of formula.
-
For bottles/sippy cups you can try personalized orbit labels from inchbug.com.

i bought oliver's labels and another company's labels (can't think of the name). put them on everything -- they are great and haven't come off even after washing them in the dishwasher/washing machine! no need to sew -- just stick on!
-
what about a "leash" for the bottles/nuks similar to a pacifier leash? Then just put a label on the leash attached to the bottle?
I was going to echo @Mrs. Jacks: idea - painters tape and sharpie. Comes of easily.
-
@Mrs. Jacks: do that at home to label when I pumped a bottle. But wouldn't it come off when they reheat a bottle?
Anyone seen the label stuff on deal sites? They're a bit more than I want to pay. I would just do vistaprint labels but they're not waterproof for bottles.

@regberadaisy: We don't use any bottles, just her water bottle which we wash by hand.
