Got a baby on the way? Cleaning tips for mom-to-be

A lot of women say they experience a serious case of "nesting" when they are pregnant - 

 – and want to clean everything in sight. But it is important for pregnant women to know what’s safe to clean – and what should be left for someone else to handle. There are a lot of “no no’s” when it comes to cleaning while you are pregnant and special care should be taken to avoid heavy lifting, climbing on ladders or reaching. Exposure to potentially toxic chemicals should also be avoided. Here are a few pregnancy cleaning tips from MOP-n-BUCKET Cleaning Service, a professional Vancouver - Surrey cleaning service that specializes in commercial and residential cleaning.

Avoid Toxic Chemicals while Cleaning Your Home

Avoiding toxic chemicals is extremely important when pregnant, as inhaling potentially harmful chemicals can cause damage or defects to a developing fetus. According to many Vancouver corporate cleaning professionals, any cleaning product with the label “poisonous”, “toxic” or “corrosive” is a bad idea to use without the proper precautions. Some precautions to take include:  using chemical cleaning products in a well-ventilated areas or with windows open. It;s a good idea to wear a protective mask while cleaning. Cheap painter’s masks can be purchased at any hardware or home depot store and can help filter harmful chemicals from reaching the lungs.

Gloves should also be worn while cleaning with chemicals, as toxins could seep through the skin. Being pregnant is a good time to start investing in safe cleaning solutions – or learn to make your own using non-toxic ingredients. You would be surprised to know how effective simple ingredients such as baking soda and vinegar and lemon can be for cleaning. Even the top commercial cleaning services in Vancouver’s businesses' have some of these natural ingredients in their cleaning arsenal. Finally, avoid cleaning cat litter boxes or use a mask while doing it. Cat feces can transmit a dangerous disease, known as toxoplasmosis.

Avoid Heavy Lifting, Pulling or Pushing

Pregnancy isn’t the time to start on “feats of strength” says Gema, a team leader at MOP-n-BUCKET. She recommends that pregnant women approach any lifting, bending or squatting with caution. "Pregnancy changes your center of balance and also loosens joints and ligaments, so injury could easily occur when attempting any of these movements."

 It is also not a good idea to lift much more than 20-30 pounds, as this could put strain on your back and cause a pulled muscle. Also, an expecting mother must never attempt to climb a ladder – even if nesting instincts make you want to clean those cabinet tops. Falling while pregnant could have devastating effects.

Remember this: cleaning can always wait – but the health and safety of your unborn baby should never be put at risk.

Calling a Professional Cleaning Service

If you’re pregnant, this is the perfect time to relax a little bit and hire professional help. Pregnancy is one of the few times where you are allowed to sit back and take it easy – and one of the best ways to relax is to take the chore of cleaning off your plate.

Major Cleaning Time - Spring Cleaning is just around the corner

I know it's only middle of January -- but spring is just around the corner... but it's a good idea to get a jump on things.... cleaning ends up being on the bottom of our to-do list.

For many people, the tasks seem daunting, perhaps even overwhelming.

Here are some tips that will help make the job easier, from MOP-n-BUCKET Cleaning Service with over 200,000 hours of experience:

STEP 1. HAVE ALL SUPPLIES AND EQUIPMENT READY

CHECKLIST OF EQUIPMENT & SUPPLIES

• VACUUM WITH POWER HEAD AND ATTACHMENTS
• VACUUM BAGS
• MICROFIBRE MOP
• BROOM
• DUST PAN
• BUCKET
• TOILET BRUSH
• STEP STOOL
• HANDLED DUSTER
• COTTON CLEANING RAGS
• MICROFIBRE CLOTHS
• GENERAL PURPOSE CLEANER
• GLASS CLEANER
• TILE AND PORCELAIN CLEANER
• PAPER TOWEL
• S.O.S. OR SCRUBBIE PADS
• WOOD CARE PRODUCTS (YOUR CHOICE)
• OVEN CLEANER
• GARBAGE BAGS
• WHITE VINEGAR
• CHLORINE BLEACH
• SEVERAL 2 CUBIC FOOT PACKING BOXES
• CLOTHES HAMPERS
• LARGE “YARD” VINYL TRASH BAGS

STEP 2. TURN OFF FURNACE
Major cleaning will stir up dust. You do not want the furnace moving it around the house. This is a good time to replace / clean your furnace filters.

STEP 3. DO ONE ROOM / AREA AT A TIME
Start up high and work your way down through the house. Dust and dirt falls. Don’t start cleaning until you do step 4. (top to bottom, left-right, which ever direction you choose as long as you end up where you started)

STEP 4. PICK UP, SORT OUT, THROW AWAY
Once you have decided on the first room to clean, follow this step carefully.
You cannot clean around clutter and extra “stuff”.
Begin by removing everything from the room except large furniture.
As each item comes out, decide its fate:

Throw away items should be bagged or boxed for garbage, recycling or charity and placed to go out.
Items that are for keeping can be placed into laundry hampers.
You will clean these items after the room is cleaned – as you place them back in.

STEP 5. FOLLOW A SYSTEM TO CLEAN THE ROOM
With all the stuff out, you are ready to clean the room.
Start up high. (top -bottom)
Move around the room in one direction.
Use the dusting tool on the vacuum to get at cobwebs.
Always clean floors last.

:D we know cleaning isn't a whole lot of fun... isn't there something else you'd rather be doing?
You can always call us to do it for you.
