In-House Day Care Facility Commercial Cleaning in Metro Detroit
Kid-Safe Hygiene for Classrooms, Nap Areas, and Shared Spaces
Cleanliness in child-occupied spaces isn’t just about looking tidy—it’s about interrupting germ cycles while protecting delicate immune systems and sensitive surfaces. Maven Commercial Cleaning’s In-House Day Care Facility Commercial Cleaning program delivers kid-safe disinfection, soft-surface care, and compliance-minded routines for on-site childcare rooms inside offices, medical campuses, fitness centers, schools, and corporate facilities across Detroit, Southfield, Novi, Troy, and the wider Macomb, Oakland, and Wayne county region. We combine EPA-listed disinfectants (child-appropriate), low-odor options, and documented checklists to keep classrooms, nap zones, and play areas healthy, welcoming, and regulation-ready.
What We Clean (and How We Keep It Kid-Safe)
Every program begins with an on-site walk-through—never a virtual estimate—to map room layouts, ages served, materials, traffic peaks, and licensing requirements. Then we build a zone-by-zone plan with the right methods and frequencies.
- Classrooms & Activity Areas
- Tables, chairs, cubbies, shelves, and manipulatives wiped and disinfected on a documented cadence; device-safe care for tablets and shared screens.
- High-touch points (doors, rails, light switches, faucets) cleaned and disinfected at set intervals throughout the day (via porter) and again during after-hours resets.
- Floor care tuned to your surface mix (LVT, rubber, carpet tiles): daily debris removal; neutral cleaner cycles; periodic machine scrubs; HEPA vacuuming for carpets and rugs.
- Toys & Learning Materials
- Rotation-friendly sanitation plan: hard toys disinfected on a schedule; soft toys laundered per your policy; bin-by-bin labeling so staff and parents see a consistent routine.
- Mouthable items prioritized for more frequent disinfection in infant/toddler rooms.
- Nap & Quiet Zones
- Cots and mats cleaned and disinfected between uses; storage areas wiped; cot feet and contact points sanitized to prevent cross-contamination.
- Blanket and sheet handling aligned with your laundry policy; soiled-item isolation and bagging protocols to protect other surfaces.
- Diapering, Restrooms & Hand-Wash Stations
- Changing tables, guards, and pads disinfected with proper dwell times after each use (porter coverage available); liners changed and trash sealed.
- Sinks, faucets, and soap/towel dispensers cleaned and restocked; splash zones and counters disinfected; mirrors polished.
- Toilets/urinals/child-height fixtures thoroughly disinfected; partitions and hardware wiped; drain/odor control addressed at the source.
- Food Prep, Bottle, and Snack Areas
- Counters, sinks, appliances, refrigerators (exteriors) cleaned and sanitized; handles and knobs disinfected.
- High-chairs, trays, and booster seats cleaned and disinfected per service; labeled storage wiped and organized.
- Entry, Pick-Up/Drop-Off, and Stroller Parking
- Mats and thresholds maintained to prevent tracking; door glass/frames kept fingerprint-free.
- Badge pads/intercoms cleaned with low-moisture, device-safe methods; stroller areas swept and organized to maintain egress.
Health Standards, Chemical Safety & Low-Odor Options
Children’s spaces demand product choice and process control. We:
- Use EPA-listed disinfectants with appropriate contact times and kid-safe profiles; we can specify low-VOC, fragrance-free options for scent-sensitive rooms.
- Train our uniformed W-2 team in BBP awareness, PPE use, proper dilution, and dwell-time compliance—then verify with digital checklists.
- Prevent residue build-up on tables and toys by pairing disinfection with final wipes using material-safe cloths.
- Follow food-adjacent protocols in prep areas and bottle stations to avoid cross-contamination.
Documentation Parents and Inspectors Appreciate
Day care environments face oversight from internal compliance teams and, in many cases, state or local licensing review. We provide:
- Zone-specific digital checklists with time stamps (classrooms, nap areas, diapering stations, restrooms, kitchens).
- Supply/restock logs for soap, paper, and liners.
- Corrective action notes when we identify recurring issues (e.g., toy bins that need more frequent cycles, drains with odor potential).
- Photo documentation as allowed (never including children; only non-sensitive areas) to demonstrate standards without privacy risks.
Scheduling That Matches Routines and Ratios
We align cleaning around your class schedules, nap windows, and staff ratios:
- Before-open reset: Rooms start the day sanitized, stocked, and organized.
- Mid-day touch-ups (Day Porter): Targeted disinfection of tables, chairs, toys in rotation, diapering stations after use, and hand-wash areas—without disrupting supervision.
- After-hours reset: Full-scope disinfection, floor care, trash/diaper waste handling, odor control, and toy/material cycles per schedule.
- Event/parent night coverage for presentations or open houses with on-call tidying.
Material-Safe Methods for Child-Centric Finishes
We match tools to surfaces that get heavy use and frequent wiping:
- Rubber/LVT floors: Neutral daily cleaner; periodic machine scrub for traction; no slick residues.
- Carpet tiles and rugs: HEPA vacuuming; encapsulation for interim care; scheduled hot-water extraction to remove allergens and spills.
- Plastic/laminate furniture & cubbies: Non-abrasive cloths and residue-free agents that won’t leave films on little hands.
- Acrylic windows/guards: Anti-static, ammonia-free cleaners to prevent clouding/crazing.
- Stainless/brass hardware: Fingerprint control and polish cycles without harsh odors.
Metro Detroit Seasonality: Plan for Weather & Illness Cycles
- Winter: Increased salt/moisture control at entries; enhanced high-touch disinfection during cold/flu spikes.
- Spring: Pollen/dust patrol on vents, sills, and shelves; carpet extraction to refresh IAQ.
- Summer: Odor management in diapering/wet areas; extra mat cycles for water play days.
- Fall: Back-to-school ramp-up with heightened toy rotation and hand-wash station sanitizing.
