The toileting independence dilemma every parent knows… 😂🚽

“Let them practise doing it independently.”
vs.
“We needed to leave 10 minutes ago!” 😅

Building independence takes time, practice and the right support.

Our Toileting Independence OT Groups give children aged 4–6 the opportunity to build their toileting knowledge and work on key skills alongside similar-aged peers.

A toilet that feels comfortable and secure can make a big difference when children are learning to use it confidently. 🚽💛

Adult sized toilet seats can feel too large for little bodies, which may cause children to tense their muscles, hold onto the seat or even avoid the toilet altogether.

✔️ Choose a stable toilet seat with a smaller opening
✔️ Make sure the seat suits your child's size and toilet shape
✔️ Support their feet with an appropriately sized footstool
✔️ Aim for knees slightly higher than hips
✔️ Help them feel safe, stable and relaxed

The right setup can support better positioning, easier bladder and bowel emptying, and greater toileting independence.

Because feeling secure on the toilet helps children build confidence and independence, one wee and poo at a time. 🌟

🚨 NEW BLOG ALERT! 🚽✨

Does your child ever look like they’re holding on for dear life when sitting on the toilet? 😬

An adult-sized toilet can feel surprisingly big and unstable for little bodies. And when children don’t feel secure, it can be much harder for them to relax and comfortably do a wee or poo.

Our newest blog explores how choosing the right toilet seat can make a BIG difference, including:

✨ Why a smaller toilet seat can help
🚽 Different child-sized seat options and their pros and cons
👣 Why a footstool is just as important
📏 What to consider when choosing the right setup
💙 How the right support can build comfort, confidence and independence

Sometimes, a simple change to the bathroom setup can make toilet learning feel a whole lot easier.

🌟 This week's Tip Tuesday is a little special!

Puberty can bring a whole new set of changes, questions, and everyday challenges for young people and the adults supporting them.

Starting conversations early can make those changes feel more manageable. Clear explanations, visual supports, predictable routines, and opportunities to practice new self care skills can help young people gradually build understanding, confidence, and independence. 💙

Body changes take place in puberty that make hygiene and self care more complicated - like deodorant, hair removal and menstruation!

And for the clinicians in our community

Upcoming Conquering the Puberty Blues online workshop this November will explore practical ways clinicians can support young people through puberty, self care, hygiene, and growing independence.
