If you have tried toilet learning with your child before and it doesn't work out, your child might just not be ready. Don’t be disappointed or upset. You can’t rush your child into using the toilet. You could try taking a break from the training for about 1 to 3 months.

#CollegeofNewScholars Member @CatherineALebel, Gerald Giesbrecht & @ltomfohr explain that while #pandemic #babies’ developmental milestones are not as bad as we feared, they are not as good as before. Read their findings in this Voices of #RSC article > shorturl.at/btIU4
When toilet training, make sure to practice with your child! Building a routine and helping your child get used to the potty will help them feel more confident.
Tip: have your child sit on the potty at specific times during the day, such as first thing in the morning.

When it comes to toilet learning, every child will be different. However, you can create a plan to best support your child!
For ex., consider using a potty chair rather than a regular toilet. Your child might be more stable on a potty chair so that their feet can touch the floor.

When it comes to toilet learning, every child will be different. Some children are ready as young as 18 months, but most start between the ages of 2 to 4. As a parent, it is important to be patient and follow your child’s cues through each step.
