Potty & Toilet Training / Potties, Seats & Trainers

Toilet training is the milestone parents look forward to the most and often feel the least prepared for. Every child gets there in their own time - and when yours is ready, the right setup makes a real difference to how the process goes. The right potty, the right seat, the right step stool: small pieces that combine to make the transition from nappies something your toddler can feel proud of rather than anxious about.

Starting with a Potty

For most children, toilet training starts with a standalone potty - a dedicated, child-sized seat that is theirs, at their height, and requires no climbing or adult assistance to use. Building familiarity with the potty before training actually begins is worth doing early: leave it in the bathroom, let them sit on it during bath time, make it part of the daily routine long before any expectation is attached to it.

When the training phase arrives, a potty that your child feels comfortable with removes friction from a process that already has enough of its own. The simpler each individual use is - stable enough to feel secure, sized correctly, not cold underfoot - the faster the habit forms. It sounds obvious, but the potty your child is willing to use is the right potty, regardless of which one you preferred.

Toilet Seat Inserts and Step Stools

For children who are ready to move directly to the toilet rather than a standalone potty, a toilet seat insert gives them a properly sized surface without the height and security challenges of a full adult seat. Sitting without the fear of falling in changes everything - it is the difference between a child who will try and one who resists at the bathroom door.

The step stool is the companion piece that most parents discover they should have bought first. It brings your child to the right height to climb up, and - just as importantly - gives their feet something to push against during use, which is the physical position needed for the process to actually work. Many parents buy the seat and figure this out afterwards.

Travel Potties - for When There Is No Good Alternative

Away from home, the urgency of "I need to go NOW" arrives with very little warning and rarely near a convenient bathroom. A travel potty folds flat to fit in a bag, sets up in seconds, and uses either disposable liners or can be emptied and wiped immediately.

For families who travel regularly, spend time outdoors, or simply visit anywhere without a child-appropriate bathroom, a travel potty turns an urgent moment into something manageable rather than a situation.
