Right, so I've worked these donation bags - 9 Sep 2025 - TikTok @jaynesbabybank1_tm - Jaynes Baby Bank
Right, so I've worked these donation bags.
Lovely.
The tags on.
So I'll go through those now and price them up and things like that.
Lovely shoes, beautiful shoes are coming, look.
Those are the ones.
We'll through them now, they all look pretty clean, so none of them will need a wash.
A bit of...
River Island are there, so I've gone through them now.
So what we do, first of all, this is the Jan standard, this is the Jan training now.
Okay, Jan I will volunteer, one of our senior royals, senior volunteer, devise this plan, okay.
So, we go through them, we put them in ages, 0 to 3, 12 to 18, 18 to 24, 6 to 9, 9 to 12, 2 to 3.
I know it's a bit backwards, but there we are.
It's got to be a bit backwards to work here.
Right, so we go through them, we make sure they're clean, we make sure they're all functioning, yeah, as they should do and safely.
And you also need to check them for fire labels.
Any sleepwear, fancy dress or children's clothes after the age of one need to have fire labels on or they have to be destroyed by law in accordance with trading standards law for safety reasons.
Okay?
This is why you need to watch the stuff you're buying, right, because they don't have the correct fire labels on them.
Sheen have been told they've got to and they've got a smart code on them now, I think.
But you just need to be aware of those safety reasons, okay?
So we would have to put a scissors through it if it didn't have it.
So I've got a little bit of a wash and I'll have a go with that.
So then, after this now, I'm going to go through it all and do up all the buttons.
This is Jan's training, this is how we do it.
Because if you can't work the baby clothes, we won't have you in because this is what, you know, this is what our mothers need.
And they will come in and they might be fuzzled and they might say, I need baby clothes.
So you need to know how the baby clothes run and work.
Okay, so they'll all get done up and folded.
And then if they're a set, I've got a little plastic gunner thing.
But I've also got, there's a set down near the Bambi set.
And I've got this little set for there though.
Good different colours there, I'll have to check.
But I know I've got a Bambi set.
So pyjamas and tops will be stuck together even with a safety pin.
I'd rather a safety pin because it's more sustainable.
But I will say that the little plastic gun has been a lifesaver for loads of stuff.
Litting the shoes.
Oh, loads of stuff I've used for that.
Put the haberdasher on the rails to stop people pulling it off the hanger.
And say, oh I found these curtains, I think they're a pound.
No, there's a hanger that says £10.
Go and bloody find it.
Yeah?
So we can like, plastic sort of put them on.
And some hangers have got holes in to put the plastic through so they can't pull them off the hanger.
So yeah, this is how we work the baby clothes.
And then once we've done the baby clothes, they are all 50p.
The ones by my desk, Adira, they are all 50p.
Three per pound for the bag for the fiber.
Then what we do is they come over and they go on the coloured hangers.
And this is the same system in every shop.
And it's under our trademark.
So let me try it on.
So that's 0-3, 3-6, 6-9, 6-12, 5-18.
That's as far as we've got with those.
And then if they're boutique items, they get hung up with a price tag attached to them.
And we're usually on our price or something.
So that would be 1.25.
A little gap one with a bear on.
If any of those gets sent home or the safety pens, just bring them back in with your next time you're in, you guys.
I'll just put them in your donation bags ready for when you donate to us next.
This is my rag bag.
And it's not very often I chuck stuff out.
This stuff I have to go because it's a safety concern.
And what I've done is rescue the polystyrene from in there.
Even just in case people need new polystyrene.
And they might just want polystyrene for another job.
But then some of these are quite bad in here, so they've got to go.
But ragging.
So if somebody doesn't pick up the rag bag for free and do what they like with it, then it'll go into one of the clothes banks.
But I will label it, because I've got permission to do that, I will label it as a rag bag.
So when their van picks it up and drops it off to their donation centre, they'll say, oh, that's when I will rag her.
So, here we are.
That's how it works, guys.
That's the baby system.
Baby clothes are probably time consuming because they need so many checks.
Cleanliness, safety, functioning.
Fire labels.
And sets.
They've got to be put into sets.
And that's before they even get hung up then.
Oh yeah, you alright?
Yeah, I'm really worried about you.
Oh look that slips my back.
Woohoo!
