Toilet training
Experts suggest stopping nappies between 18 to 30 months for healthy bladder and bowel development.
Children learn best through practice and repetition, so give them plenty of chances to learn before formal potty training. Treat potty training like other skills, such as feeding themselves or brushing their teeth; it develops gradually with support.
You can start introducing the potty before stopping nappies, helping build confidence and independence over time.
Visit ERIC; the children’s bowel and bladder charity for lots of advice on how to start and when to potty train your child. They have a helpful video that breaks this down into 3 stages.
