I’m thankful I get to stay home with my children, but it hasn’t always been that way. Before I started working from home I worked outside of the home full-time and had to send my kids to daycare. Poor Vayda and Mattie started daycare at a young age and Vayda went through potty training at daycare.
5 Tips To Make Potty Training at Daycare Easier
I was lucky to have an AWESOME private daycare provider who worked with me during the potty training stages. She was honestly a lifesaver in helping me prepare Vayda for potty training while attending daycare so I thought I would provide you with a few tips that might help your little one on their potty training journey while in daycare.
Trust your daycare provider – Seriously, if you can’t trust your daycare provider than your child shouldn’t be going. You should have enough trust in them to allow them to help you and your child with their potty training journey. I think it might be safe to say your daycare provider knows a lot when it comes to potty training, they should anyway. If they don’t you might want to rethink the daycare your children attend.
Communication – Talk with your daycare provider and let them know your potty training. Don’t just pack extra britches and call it good. They need to know and it’s a good idea to even talk about any issues you might be having. Communication helped make pottytraining while attending daycare easier for everyone.
Send extra clothing – Do not just start potty training and expect your daycare provider to pull clothing out of that magic box they have. Send clothing daily or make a package for the week, whatever works best for your provider. Remember they’re watching other children who are potty training too!
Get on the same page – You can’t expect your provider to do all the work while you let your child slide at home. Get on the same page and work together it will be less confusing for you child.
Consider training pants – Pull-Ups products help get kids interested in potty training! Pull-Ups training pants have unique patterns that fade when wet to help your child learn to stay dry. The easy-open sides make it easy to check for potty breaks, plus they’re stretchy to help kids learn how to put them on and take them off like a Big Kid. New Disney designs feature Doc McStuffins, Ariel, Jake and the Never Land Pirates and Lightning McQueen. Plus, right now you can save money on Pull-Ups training pants at your local Family Dollar.

What great tips. I am close to potty training my son. He is starting to show interest, and I am dreading the daycare aspect. His amazing daycare lady has said she will follow however we want, so that is reassuring.
