Potty Time! is a warm and practical guide crafted for new parents and caregivers who want potty training to feel like a positive journey rather than a stressful challenge. Drawing on over two decades of preschool experience, Teacher Emil Antoan shares gentle, realistic advice focused on recognizing your child’s readiness, building effective routines, handling setbacks with patience, and teaching lifelong hygiene habits.

What You’ll Find Inside

• Clear Readiness Markers: Learn how to spot signs your child is ready for potty training—like staying dry for two or more hours, showing curiosity, following instructions, and more. Understand why age is just a guideline.
• Parent Preparation: Tips to get all caregivers aligned, choose the best start time for your family, and know when to seek professional advice.
• Gear & Safety: Practical guidance on selecting potties, seat reducers, non-slip step stools, clothing choices, and hygiene supplies to make potty time safe and easy.
• Step-by-Step Plan: Set goals, create friendly routines around mealtimes and naps, and use demonstration techniques that help children learn by imitation.
• Daytime Strategies: Positioning tips for comfort, spotting early signals, using timers, and building pressure-free potty habits.
• Nighttime Guidance: Understand why night control is a separate skill, recognize readiness signs, and learn calm cleanup methods for sleep accidents.
• Handling Accidents & Setbacks: Gentle cleanup routines, staying calm, learning from mistakes, dealing with regression, and practical troubleshooting.
• Motivation That Works: Use praise, sticker charts, and small non-food rewards to build internal motivation without bribery.
• Supporting Diverse Needs: Advice for children with sensory issues, developmental delays, medical concerns, and when to involve therapists.
• Hygiene Skills: Teaching proper wiping techniques, handwashing routines, and toilet-seat hygiene for health and independence.
• Checklists & Schedules: Start-up supply lists, sample daily schedules, troubleshooting tips, and quick-reference tools.

Important Reminder

Every child develops at their own pace. This book emphasizes patience, consistent routines, and gentle encouragement as the best path to lasting success.

Why This Approach Works

Over 20 years of experience have revealed three key truths:

1. Children learn best when they feel safe—pressure and shame slow progress; patience and predictability speed it up.
2. Small consistent actions—like regular potty sits or calm cleanup routines—build real progress over time.
3. Teamwork matters—when everyone caring for your child uses the same words and routines, your child gains clear signals and confidence faster.

From Teacher Emil Antoan

"Potty training is a rite of passage that’s both practical and emotional. This guide shares what I’ve learned helping families with simple routines that reduce stress, gentle language that builds confidence, and tracking tools that reveal helpful patterns. Celebrate tiny victories and remember setbacks are normal. With kindness and persistence, most children grow confident and independent." — Teacher Emil Antoan
