A laundering; a washing.
In our family of five, we have to do the laundry every other day.
"laundry" means: A laundering; a washing.. This is a fairly neutral word with no inherent risk attached. There is no real cause for parental concern; it is descriptive vocabulary rather than something dangerous. If your child uses it, context will usually make the meaning clear. A brief, curious question about where they heard it is generally enough to know whether to follow up.
"laundry" means: A laundering; a washing.. Register: neutral, standard English, usable in most everyday contexts. A common non-native mistake is to use the word in the wrong register, or to assume one fixed meaning when it is actually polysemous; always check the surrounding register and the audience before producing it yourself. In formal writing, prefer a neutral synonym or a short descriptive phrase, and use this word only when you have heard or read it being used naturally in a comparable context.
“I have this too :( and fear that my cats were in my laundry bag and that I've put them in with the laundry. having to check that they're both loose and in my apartment before going to the laundry room, and then still not feeling sure.”

You've left your dirty laundry all over the house.
