Please remember to follow the lead of your little one. Don’t feel pressured to have them toilet trained by a certain age just because their peers are. • • • • • •
Start changing their nappy in the bathroom/loo
Always wash hands together after every nappy change
After they have done a poo in their nappy, flush the poo down the loo and then wash hands together Role model using the loo
