Letting go of your baby’s outgrown clothes: The struggle is real.
Just in time for spring cleaning and decluttering, the Pokidots cleanup program has been updated and improved!
If you’re not familiar with the cleanup program, it’s a 5-day program that helps parents let go of the outgrown baby clothes they are keeping and have a hard time parting with.
If your family is complete and you’re still holding on to your children’s baby things and the clothes they have outgrown, but would love some help letting go, this is the program for you. It’s an effective method that will walk you through the steps to let go, starting with your mindset—by identifying the reason(s) why you’re having a hard time.
Marie Kondo may be the decluttering goddess, but she definitely doesn’t go anywhere as deep into the reasons why we keep the stuff we keep! ;)
Here is the program schedule:
Day 1: Diving into the many reasons why parents may be reluctant to let go of their children’s baby clothes. Find which scenario fits your experience and prevent it from holding you back! I give you some tips to get started.
Day 2: Looking to the future and imagining your better life with less of the stuff you don’t need.
Day 3: This is a great day where I suggest many ideas of things you can do with your favorite sentimental clothes. You should check them out before you clean up, this way you can keep these ideas in mind when you’re going through your items.
Day 4: The day I give you the step-by-step process to triage and finally—and peacefully—let go of the clothes that you don’t need.
Day 5: Say goodbye to the clutter and hello to a life that’s more intentional and simplified.
Release the Clutter and Keep the Memories is exactly what the title suggests: a book to help you release the clutter that the extra clothes create, but keep the memories they have also created through the years, especially if multiple children have worn the clothes over a span of several years. I am a parent and I know what this feels like. Although I haven’t had a particularly hard time parting with my girls’ baby clothes after my little one outgrew them, I did have a considerable amount of items I had kept aside because they were so special to me. That was until I created their keepsakes in 2016, which then gave me a sense of satisfaction, and made it easier for me to let go after that!
I created the first edition of the program in the spring of 2019. It was originally a series of videos, which I had to go way out of my comfort zone to film, accompanied by a PDF transcript that was available to download.
4 years later, and with the input from more parents and the feedback of the parents who followed the initial program, I decided to update and revise it. It’s now clearer and more elaborate. I also changed the main “delivery” from videos to a flipbook that you can access here on the website immediately after you sign up!
“I know to you the information might have been obvious but I needed someone to say it to me the way you did. I listened and I did it and honestly I feel lighter. I already sent it to a couple of friends, too. Thank you!”

The second edition of the book is more elaborate and is now available on Amazon!

Alternatively, you could download and keep the program in eBook format, or buy the book from Amazon in paperback or on Kindle.
I am so proud of my work on this book and how much it has helped parents let go of these baby clothes they were still attached to, long after their kids have outgrown them.
Do you have trouble letting go of your child’s outgrown clothes?
Do you have a special situation that you think is preventing you from parting with these items? I’d love to know your story.
