Starting school is a big milestone, and if toilet independence is something you're working on at home, you're not alone.

The good news? There is still time to help your child build confidence using the toilet on their own before September. Toilet independence is about more than using the toilet itself. It can also include recognising when they need to go, managing clothing, wiping and washing their hands.

Small, consistent steps can make a real difference, and every opportunity to practise helps 🚽

Remember, every child develops at their own pace including those with additional needs, may need more time or support

Visit Best Start in Life or speak to your health visitor for more trusted advice and practical tips on toilet training.
