    They are both essential service workers (emt and nurse) and I always feel like they use their long work hours as an excuse why they can't train her properly. The mom will say that they are going to do a potty bootcamp with her for the weekend and when the weekend is over, they just go back to what they usually do.

    They are actually a really nice couple and I've never had anything bad to say about them...except this. I just feel like they are waiting for me to do it so they don't have to.
    I have a boy who's turning 4 next month. After the grandma said that she would be training all weekend (about 6 months ago) I started putting him on the potty on Monday. He went on the potty and was screeching to be let off. But I kept going with it and now he tells me when it's time to go on the potty. He still wears pull-ups but stays dry all day. The parents have never to this day put him on the potty at home. He told them he would go on the potty at home when he's 4. He's actually been changing his pull-up himself at home!

A few tips...

Always ensure that your child receives quality care by taking the time to investigate the provider and by asking for references! We simply cannot verify the claims of every daycare provider.
Did you know?
On average, a listing is viewed each month by more than 40 parents looking for an available opening for their child!
