    The key here is that she must be accident free AT DAYCARE - not just at home. Parents can do what they want but child will remain in a pullup till they have met the daycare criteria to go into underwear which is two weeks accident free. And a pullup at naptime till one month of accident free. One accident and the time starts again. This is my house and I am not interested in any child's pee all over my house.

    If they are truly trained at home the switch at daycare will go quickly. And I might be inclined to take the risk earlier for the child if they were mature enough to always tell me in advance and not just me putting them on at intervals etc. - ie acted trained.

    Sounds like these parents have very unrealistic expectations. Especially at her age. Once a child turns 3, then I understand that they would want to really get potty training under way, but at 2 do they really think she will train in 3 days? Obviously they are first time parents who just have no clue. You are simply going to have to stick to your rules no matter how insistent they are. They can do whatever they want at their house, but your daycare YOUR rules. You could try to offer that you can take her potty at certain points during the day etc., but at the end of the day it's not fair to you that they just put her in underwear and have her pee all over your house.
