🚽 Toileting & Potty Training Support
Gentle, sensory-aware support for parents who are DONE googling at midnight. No shame. No pressure. Just calm, practical help that actually makes sense (and doesn’t involve bribing with 47 stickers and a prayer).
🚼 Just starting potty training?
Keep it simple. Keep it calm. You do not need to “get it done in 3 days” unless your nervous system enjoys chaos.
😩 Regression happening?
Regression doesn’t mean you’ve failed. It usually means: something changed (sleep, routine, stress, illness, school… or your child simply decided toilets are suspicious again).
🌙 Night-time struggles?
Night training is basically “advanced mode.” You’re not behind — it’s just a different skill (and sleep deprivation makes everything feel 400% harder).
💩 Only pooing in a nappy?
You are not the only parent living this storyline. It’s often sensory + control + body awareness (and sometimes the toilet feels like a portal to another dimension).
🚫 Refusing the toilet completely?
Refusal is usually communication. The goal isn’t “make them do it” — it’s “make it feel safe enough” (and that’s a totally different vibe).
Still not sure what’s actually going on?
If toileting is blowing up, it’s often connected to sleep, overwhelm, routines and sensory overload. Start with the bigger picture and work smarter, not harder.
