Potty Training Package for Early Years settings

We want all families and early years professionals to access reliable information about how to support good toileting.

With a good grounding in the basics of toilet training and an understanding of how to identify common continence problems, families have the best chance to help their child use the toilet independently. It's vital that parents and early years practitioners work together to give children consistent messages.


ERIC's Potty Training Package

Our user friendly resource has been designed by continence experts to enable nurseries and early years settings deliver best practice and supportive toilet training. The free, downloadable pack includes the following:

  • Potty Training Policy
  • Potty Training Flowchart for practitioners
  • Early Years Healthy Bladder & Bowel Assessment
  • Potty Training Record
  • Children who will only poo in a nappy and other toilet avoiders
  • Bristol Stool Chart
