Laundry is one thing that works well during daycare - worked better when I had a basement playroom and a basement laundry but with it on the mainfloor I work it around our day. I put in a tub as we head to the basement. When we come up an hour later for lunch I put it in the dryer. It dries while I cook lunch and I fold it while they eat. Put in the second load, it goes in the dryer and comes out and gets folded before they get up from snack. With four kids and one of them in sports and one special needs the baskets piled up faster than I could wash them but clothes during the week and all the bedding on the weekend.
