Children touch everything. That's their job. Toys, tables, door handles, other children – whatever's within reach gets grabbed. It's no different in a nursery.
That's why hygiene in educational facilities isn't an optional extra. It's a legal requirement, a parental expectation – and a straightforward necessity.
What Makes School and Nursery Cleaning Different?
Unlike office cleaning, educational facilities operate under significantly stricter hygiene standards:- Daily disinfection of all contact surfaces – door handles, light switches, tables, chairs
- Child-safe cleaning products – exclusively approved products for children's environments
- Bathrooms – full cleaning and disinfection at least once daily
- Floors – allergen-reducing methods, no harsh chemicals
- Kitchens and serving areas – food hygiene-compliant cleaning
- Outdoor areas and play equipment – regular surface cleaning
Why In-House Staff Often Aren't Enough

A professional cleaning service provides: training to current RKI and infection prevention standards, documented cleaning schedules for audits, reliable cover during staff absences, and legal compliance with health authority requirements.
