2.2 plan strategies for incorporating effective toilet training into routines

In the setting we incorporate effective toilet training into routines by talking to parents about what they do at home with their child for potty or toilet training and then we will try the routine in the nursery. We also encourage bringing their own potty in as then they may be more likely to go to the potty in the nursery. When a child uses a potty or the toilet we will give them praise like saying things like “well done” or by giving them stickers and certificates. By doing this they will feel more confident using the potty and might be more willing to use it. After meal times ,snack times and before we go outside we usually ask the child if they need the toilet or potty and if they say yes we will take them, this is to prevent accidents and so they get use to going to toilet or potty after they have drank and eaten. Never tell a child off for having an accident it could make the child scared of the situation by what has happened and it could make the child scared of going to the potty or toilet. Reassure the child it is ok to have accidents but next time try and make the toilet or potty or ask a member of staff if they need the toilet.
