Daycare Moms - Help with Labeling
DS is starting daycare soon, and I know I need to label bottles, but what is the best way to do that? What about labeling the pacifer?

I used Mabel's labels and they lasted forever. I just looked at some packed away bottled that still had labels on. I thought I could peel off a label and use it for something else and that thing was on there for good!!
After the infant room I stopped labeling things. Obviously no bottles anymore so didn't have to worry about that but stopped labeling clothes, etc. or just used a sharpie on a tag if it was something important.
when DD was little, for the bottles, I used the name bubbles labels on the lids (http://www.namebubbles.com and inch bug bands around them (http://www.inchbug.com).
Name bubbles labels are still stuck and not peeling (DD is 4 and we used them on food containers as well).
For DS we did the same, but for ease I got the sticky labels from inch bug and they dont' have the same staying power. They started peeling after a few months.
We originally bought our first set of labels from a local lady that I found through Veronica's graphic design business. I don't think she's in business anymore though because when I went to buy more - the website didn't work.
I bought some on Etsy, but they started wearing off pretty quickly.
My third buy was from this company, and they've held up really well. http://www.cherryhilldesigns.com/waterproof-labels_c_1.html. They have ones for pacifiers, bottles/sippy cups, clothing, etc.
