My child isn't speaking very well yet—can we start?

You can start with Step 1—reading books and taking your child to the toilet once in a while—as early as 18 months. You’ll naturally notice whether your child finds this interesting. You can always start at age 2, even if your child isn’t very good at talking yet. Children often understand more than they can express. That’s what matters most when it comes to potty training.  Does your child understand what you mean when you talk about diapers, pees, poops, and the toilet? By pointing things out or using simple words? Then your child is ready.
