Back-to-school in New Braunfels means fresh supplies, excited students, and—unfortunately—an uptick in germs. Daycares and schools are hotspots for colds, flu, and RSV, especially in the fall. The right cleaning plan can make all the difference in keeping kids healthy, parents reassured, and teachers focused. Here’s how New Braunfels Janitorial helps schools and childcare centers tackle germs head-on.

Why Germs Spread Faster in Schools and Daycares

Children share toys, desks, books, and play areas all day long. Add in crowded classrooms and busy restrooms, and germs spread quickly. A simple daily wipe-down isn’t enough to stop flu season in its tracks. New Braunfels Janitorial uses child-safe disinfectants and targeted routines to focus on high-touch areas—like doorknobs, desks, and toys—where bacteria and viruses are most likely to spread.



What a Back-to-School Cleaning Plan Should Include

A strong school or daycare cleaning routine goes beyond vacuuming and emptying trash. It should cover:

  • Daily disinfection of desks, toys, restrooms, and common areas

  • Play area sanitizing with safe cleaning products

  • Restroom deep cleaning and supply restocking

  • Floor cleaning to remove dirt, allergens, and spills

  • Frequent trash removal to prevent bacteria growth


With New Braunfels Janitorial, each plan is customized to your facility’s needs—whether it’s a preschool, elementary school, or private childcare center.



The Benefits of Professional Daycare & School Cleaning

  • Fewer absences: Reduce sick days for both students and staff

  • Parent confidence: A visibly clean facility reassures families

  • Compliance-ready: Cleaning practices that meet health standards

  • Extended facility life: Floors, furniture, and restrooms last longer with proper care


By choosing New Braunfels Janitorial, schools and daycares in New Braunfels can focus on teaching and caring for children—while we focus on keeping spaces safe and spotless.
