"I would make a habit of asking the child every hour if he needed to use the bathroom. Often times kids get so used to diapers that they forget they have to go until its too late. I would take them to the bathroom to check to see if they needed to pee if they weren't sure. I tried to help them get more comfortable with the idea of sitting on the toilet. I even bribed them with gummy bears so that they knew every time they went to the bathroom, they would get rewarded. This worked extremely well!"

If you have experience with potty training, talk about what you have found the most helpful. If you haven't done potty training on your own, talk about kids you worked with who were learning to use the bathroom and how you supported them as they learned.
