Potty Training Welcome

Welcome to Potty Training 101

Here you’ll find resources to help you navigate your potty training journey.

Meet our potty expert - Kim West, MSW

Hi, I’m Kim West and I have learned over the past 30 years of supporting families on their parenting journey that there is no one-size-fits-all in parenting, and especially, potty training.

Parents consistently tell me that they want an approach that aligns with their parenting style and considers their child’s temperament (and their own) so that the potty learning process can be smoother and easier for the entire family. And that is what I have worked hard to create for you! Potty training is about more than just learning to go pee and poo on the toilet…it’s also about your child learning about their body and gaining both independence and self-confidence throughout the process. I’m excited to share some potty training tips with you to help you get started!

What Parents Have to Say About the Gentle Potty Coaching Approach

Potty training was something that we DREADED as a family, with my 2 older ones it had been long and hard. I knew I wanted something that worked fast and effectively....without the long drawn out battles and without being locked in our house for 4 days! The plan was flexible and worked around my families needs. I would recommend this approach to everyone!

I had no idea even where to start to help my little one learn to use the potty. There is so much conflicting information out there and I felt confused and overwhelmed. This course gave me a options based on my son's temperament that made sense, were practical and in 7 days my son was fully potty trained without ever having to bribe him.

I loved how the Gentle Potty Coaching method worked for my 3 year old who had been struggling for over a year with potty training. The course is filled with tools that helped us navigate the stress and struggle that potty training had become. I would recommend this course to everyone before they even think about potty training!

My daughter was very resistant to the potty from the beginning and didn't want anything to do with it. We tried everything! Nothing worked. Then a friend suggested the Gentle Potty Course and I immediately felt like I could relax because I finally had step by step help. I even had an option to talk to a Gentle Potty Coach. In 9 days my daughter was fully potty trained!

Get to Know the Two Phases of Potty Training

We think of potty learning as happening in two phases:

Phase 1: Preparation

Once you have determined that your child is ready for potty learning then it's time to start talking and learning about the potty….and of course, having the right products is essential!

Phase 2: Transitioning

If you feel like your child has gotten the hang of potty training and is able to maneuver getting onto the toilet and pull up and down their pants then it's time for a potty seat with a ladder. If you are venturing out, then it's time for our travel ready potties.
