When is the best time to start?

Many parents wonder: "Is this the right time?" The answer: you don't have to wait for a 'magic age' or the summer. What's more important is whether your child and you are ready.

Children often show the first signs between 1.5 and 2 years old. Then it's a good time to start getting acquainted and doing short practice sessions. The diaper doesn't have to come off right away: you build it up step by step.

Look for readiness cues

Recognize interest in the toilet, imitating behavior, or indicating that a diaper is dirty.

Why this works: You're aligning with your child's development, not the calendar.

Don't let age be the deciding factor

A child of 18 months may already be interested, while another may not want to practice until around 3 years old.

Why this works: This prevents frustration and unnecessary pressure.

Don't wait for summer

Learning to pee has little to do with warm weather. It's all about routine and support.

Why this works: You make practicing possible in all seasons.

Make sure you're ready too!

Plan a period when you have time and attention to practice.

Why this works: Your peace and availability also determine the success.

Start at a quiet moment, with small steps. That makes it fun and feasible for you and your child.
