In this first episode of the Go PottyTM Podcast, I am going to explain what potty training actually is (a series of 40 skills that your child needs to master before they can be considered potty trained) and introduce the two core skills that your child will need to let go of nappies. You'll also learn that readiness is a myth and that you can begin teaching potty skills from birth!

Potty training accidents significantly impact your child's experience and progress. In this episode, Rebecca explains how to navigate accidents with confidence. This episode will also help you know how to overcome common challenges you might encounter alongside accidents, such as resistance from your child or procrastination.

Using Rebecca’s ‘neutral narrative’ approach, you can avoid making the most common mistake of expressing disappointment or frustration and instead, focus on the task at hand, involving your child in cleanup efforts, and using accidents as teachable moments for hygiene and self-care skills.
