All the potty trained children in my care tell me when they have to go, as my own son does it I thought it was normal. Once they announce it I tell them to go to the potty and off they run. If they need help wiping or hand washing they then call out to me from the bathroom and I go help them.
I'm glad my 2 year old DCG asks now. In her previous dayhome they had scheduled potty times and she was only allowed to go during those times. As I don't have this when she first came she had some accidents because she would hold and hold it until "potty time" which never came! My oldest isn't quite 3 and none of them can wipe or wash thier hands properly without assistance or coaching so I prefer to know when they are in there. I've had a few skid mark instances when they went without telling me or getting my help wiping. I've had toilet paper left in underpants for parents to find hours later, soap not washed off hands... I much prefer them yelling "I GOTTA GO PEEEEEE" haha.
