Get ready for toilet training
Helping your child become independent with using the toilet is a big step. It involves motor skills, language, and thinking. This workshop introduces families to toilet training and offers a chance to troubleshoot common questions before you get started.
Please note: If your school-aged child is not yet toilet trained after many attempts, you may need extra help from an incontinence nurse. This workshop is for families just starting out with toilet training and may not meet your needs.
For more support, contact the Continence Foundation of Australia at 1800 330 066.
What you’ll learn:
- How to know when your child is ready for toilet training
- The key skills your child needs to succeed
- How to set up the right environment for success
- Tips on staying positive throughout the process
This program is for
Parents, primary carers and family members of children aged 0-8 years.
This workshop was designed with children with disability or developmental delays in mind; however, many of the strategies are relevant to all children.
