I agree with Michelle I don't allow naked children or underwear until the child is fully trained for a month and a child that is placed on the potty every hour is not a trained child it's a trained adult. I have it right in my contract that a parents must provide pull ups and they have to be dressed in pants that are easy to manipulate ... No onesies, overalls, belts, buckles ect .... Basically pants or shorts that just pull up and down. I have never used plastic pants but I am pretty sure they will leak urine. I too used a sticker incentive. Maybe buy a potty you can put in your playroom so that you don't have to go up the stairs to use the washroom. At home the parent only has to worry about and focus on one child but at daycare that just isn't so and if the child isn't able to or won't announce that he has to use the potty then it's kind of hard to force them too and to just stop everything you are doing and put them on the potty really isn't teaching them anything. Maybe suggest they work on it during summer holidays when they can have two weeks of consistency. I just potty trained my youngest and I spent a week talking to him about it ... How we were only going to wear diapers for nap/night time then I started on a sat morning he had a few accidents the first day then only one the second day and since then (Jan) no accidents. He still wears diapers for sleeping. So maybe if they wait a few more months it will click for him then it will only take a few days. I trained my three youngest when they were 2.5 and it only took one weekend. Good luck and I would insist on pull ups.
