Home News and Events Parents Stories A toilet training story
I decided that in Christmas holidays Bill was going to come out of his nappy.
So I took the nappy off him and put on undies as it was hot and I was able to see dribbles and accidents faster. We did have daily accidents, quite a few, and I was getting to wonder if he was going to be toiled trained this time around. We persisted through all of the five week holidays and by the Term 1 this year, he was toilet trained and didn’t have accidents anywhere. When I went out to the park, shops or in the car – I didn’t put a nappy on. He sits in a booster seat which is plastic and I had a towel and spare clothes with me all the time. If he had an accident I quickly dried and changed him wherever we were.
For two months or so, we all (in all settings) had to take him to the toilet regularly. After this he started going by himself gradually. Now, five months later, he goes at home most of the time by himself or goes to get someone to help him. He has started doing his at other settings too….
