Hi, I’m Hilary Erickson from The Pregnancy Nurse. How can I help?

From what I’ve shared on Pulling Curls, here are the main “tools” and systems I rely on for keeping laundry under control:

  1. Laundry pods for kids: easier and less messy than liquid detergent, especially when kids start doing their own loads.
  2. A simple weekly schedule (e.g., whites Monday, colors/towels Tuesday, bras or bathmats Wednesday, colors Friday, sheets every other Saturday).
  3. Enough basics (especially underwear) so you can wait for full loads instead of constant small ones.
  4. Clear division of responsibility: my boys do their own laundry; my husband folds. Natural consequences (like “no clean clothes”) are part of the system.

What part of laundry management are you struggling with most—time, mess, or getting kids to help?
