About this listen
The Green Parent Book of the Month!
Gurgle's Honest Read for December
How to make potty training stress free for you and your child.
The Gentle Potty Training Book is a practical guide to helping your child through one of the most important developmental stages of early childhood. Avoiding strict timelines, rewards and plans that are based solely on a child's gender, Sarah Ockwell-Smith advocates an approach that is based on your child's unique developmental stage - because the gentlest, easiest and most effective potty training happens when you work with your child as a team.
Sarah's advice includes:
Recognising the physical and emotional signs that your child is ready.
How to talk to your child about potty training and prepare them emotionally.
What you need to get started - the practicalities.
How to respond to accidents and setbacks.
Potty training your child when you're in full-time work or co-parenting.
The when and how of nighttime potty training.
What to do after previous false starts.
Comprehensive, practical and realistic, Sarah's advice will give you the necessary understanding and confidence to make potty training a smooth process for you and your child.

Training strategy that works
Thank you so much for writing this book. As a first time mom I was so nervous and confused about potty training. I heard this book 3 weeks before starting the training and it gave me so many tools to get execute the training. I trained my 3 year old in 4 days over a long weekend without any rewards, screen time, bribes.
We used loads of positive encouragements and pat on the back for trying.
As the author says the accidents are inevitable at the beginning, so we were prepared for that as well. It’s been 3 months since he was trained and we never had any poo accidents just a few wee accidents.
It went so smoothly than I anticipated. Narration is great, highly highly recommend this book to anyone who is planning to potty train their little ones

This book work
Me and My wife were struggling it my 4yr to potty train. my wife had tried my techniques and read many articles. Finally, I decide to read this book or go to the doctor for help. However, this book was a lifesaver. I followed the instruction and it worked. I even went ahead bought the paperback book as for future reference

Covers the most important need to know
beautiful narration. well detailed but a little repetitive of the facts. perhaps intentional but this made the content slightly monotonous.
however in saying, I'd 100% recommend a read of this book for potty training.
