Might sound like a stupid question - How do I inform my child’s nursery that she is potty trained

Should I write an email prior to her return, and inform them she prefers potty on toilet etc and I will pack pants etc How did you approach this? Thank you

I would just tell them when you drop her off ... this is what parents used to do at the nursery that I worked in 🙂

We just told them at drop off, but we had told them we were planning to do it in advance. At drop off we just told them how she was getting on, what to look out for and what she could/couldn't do by herself

We have a messaging system through an app, where we tell them if she is absent of if she needs anything additional. So I will message them. But if we didn't have it, I'd just tell them at drop off.

Tell the educators at drop off as part of handover so they could keep the routine at childcare. Sometimes they are super busy at drop offs/pick ups so an email or message through the app is fine too .

Thank you all so much

We put a little observation up on tapestry then in person spoke more about it.

I spoke to them in person and it all went smoothly

Were all your child/ren fully potty trained prior to you informing the nursery. My little has a few accidents, hasn’t quite mastered doing poo in the potty. I think it is important to keep the consistency going and for her to now carry through into nursery. Would like to know how you pursued?

Mine was fully trained at home with the odd accident here and there but wasn't trained at nursery. They just said to send in lots of clothes and pants and they will let him lead and remind him to go and he's been absolutely fine 😊

No we were 4 days in, she’d made excellent progress at home. But nursery took a few weeks to crack. Her biggest issue seemed to be privacy being in the baby room not the easiest but they made a little private corner for her and the improvement was instant. within weeks she was telling them she needed to go. Poo’s they sort of had to catch at first but again after a few weeks she was more in tune with her body and her communication had progressed as well. They also made a sticker chart and we brought bluey stickers they helped as well. And lots of praise. She’ll obviously have more at nursery to begin with so definitely keep pushing. Good luck I hope it all goes well x

No,.mine went back into nursery on day 4 after we started. She's been hit and miss, some days zero accidents and all in the potty, and others she's soiled her trousers. But she's only a week in and 2 and they don't seem phased by it. We've just been talking to them about how we are getting on at home with it and they keep us updated with how she gets on at. Nursery
