Potty Training: Free Milestone Moment Guide

One day your child seems completely uninterested in the potty. The next, he or she is announcing every bathroom need to the entire grocery store. Potty training rarely moves in a straight line, and that can leave even confident parents unsure of what to do next.

This free Potty Training Milestone Moment guide gives you a simple introduction to what potty readiness really looks like, and how to begin supporting your child with confidence instead of pressure.

Designed for families with children from 12 months through the preschool years, this 5-page preview is a helpful starting point before you ever announce, “We’re potty training starting Monday.”

Inside This Free Guide, You’ll Find:

• A parent-friendly welcome to potty learning and what your child is working toward
• A sample age-band spread (Ages 2–3) showing what readiness and growth may look like
• A peek inside the full guide, including the 7 common potty training methods, the Potty Learning Cheat Sheet, and the Potty & Bathroom Independence Muscles
• A sample of our carefully selected potty-learning book recommendations

Potty learning is not about hitting a deadline or comparing your child’s timeline to anyone else’s. It is about noticing readiness, practicing before it matters, and responding to accidents and setbacks with patience instead of pressure.

Start with one small step. Practice it together. Build from there.
