Iron-on name labels for clothing care tags
Use the care tag that is already there.
A compact QR name label that bonds directly to the garment's existing wash-care tag, keeping identification discreet and easy to scan.
Choose by where the label will sit
Both clothing formats include a name, QR code and ContactMyParent.com branding. The difference is the surface you apply them to.
Iron-on name labels
Apply directly to suitable garment fabric.
Care-tag name labels
Apply to the existing heat-safe care tag.

How to apply them
Apply each label to a flat, heat-safe part of the garment's existing care tag. Keep the original care symbols readable.
- 1
Check the garment's care tag
Choose a flat, heat-safe section of the existing tag. Do not cover information you still need to read.
- 2
Position the QR label
Place it directly on the care tag with the name at the top and ContactMyParent.com beneath the QR code.
- 3
Cover and press
Use the supplied pressing sheet and follow the temperature and timing included with your labels.
- 4
Let it cool completely
Leave the label and care tag flat while the adhesive bond sets.
- 5
Wait before washing
Allow 24 hours before the first wash, then follow the garment's normal care instructions.
Check the original care tag before applying. If it cannot safely take the required heat or is too small to leave its instructions visible, choose the standard iron-on name label or a waterproof sticker instead.
What the QR code does
Whoever finds the item scans it with any phone camera and your contact page opens in their browser. There is no app to download and no account for them to create.
You choose what appears, whether that is a phone number or a message form that reaches you without revealing it, and you can change it any time without replacing a single label. The profile can also carry allergies, conditions and medications, for the teacher, coach or babysitter who has a moment to check.
Do you actually need the QR code?
Not always. For clothing that stays inside a nursery or classroom, a printed name is enough, because staff know your child and lost property comes back by the end of the day.
It matters for the things that leave the building: a coat left on a bus, a jumper dropped at the park, a sports bag left at an away fixture. Whoever picks those up has a first name and no way to act on it. That is the gap this closes.
