Who’s Theodore?
HOW IT STARTED
Our brand was inspired by the reason we were created: “Theodore”.
It all started when Theodore’s mom wanted to stop using commercial cleaners with harsh and nasty chemicals that aggravated Theodore’s asthma. She was frustrated but with that came an idea: "I’ll make my own cleaners with pure and natural ingredients that smell good and are safe to use around kids like Theodore, but are highly effective as the chemical ones."

OUR STORY
And how you can join the journey too!
I’m Irene, the founder and maker of Theodore’s Home Care. We began out of a mother’s intention to create a healthfully-clean home for her son – my son, actually!
Theodore was diagnosed with asthma during his toddler years so I started cleaning more frequently to remove dust and possible allergens. I noticed I would experience bouts of headaches every time I clean. It was then that my instincts whispered to me: The cleaning solutions with unpronounceable synthetics in my cleaning caddy could also be triggering Theodore’s asthma!
The whole process challenged me to find new ways to alleviate his condition, which is how I dedicated myself to this journey of creating a clean, safe and healthy home. I knew I needed to switch to 100% pure and natural products that are also as effective as the chemical ones, but I couldn’t find what I needed. I had to be resourceful gathering more information, eventually creating, testing, and coming up with the best formulations right in my kitchen!
After more than 13 years of thoughtful research, the perfected results now form the Theodore's Home Care collection of beautiful and unique cleaning companions. I share them today with other moms, like you. To end your worries, frustrations, exhaustion and discover the joy in homemaking.
Our mission? To help you take out the chore out of cleaning, while bringing back the cheer.
Happy to guide you through your journey!
With lots of cheer,
Irene
