We are now on the other side of this exciting milestone, as our 3-year-old daughter is now potty trained. It wasn’t and (still) isn’t a linear process. We did so many things to encourage her to use the potty and so many things we didn’t do that are "typically" recommended. We ultimately followed her lead and our gut instincts and have no regrets about our approach. I am excited to share what this looked like for us and provide helpful tips and insights to guide you on your potty training journey.  Highlights from this episode: Our decision to postpone daycare for Hayden How we approached potty training Sarelle’s introduction to potty training at daycare Pay attention to your child’s potty cues Explore your potty training options Sarelle’s decision to pee in the potty Why toddlers don’t want to poop in the potty Potty accidents are inevitable Talk to your child about going poop Tips to get started potty training Navigating public washrooms Hayden’s early exposure to potty training What is elimination communication?
