The Potty Training & Toileting Problems Toolkit

Potty training and toileting challenges? Sensory needs could be the missing piece!

Struggling with Potty Training or Bathroom Battles?

Potty training can be hard for any child, but for kids with sensory needs, it can feel impossible.

Maybe your child:

  • Refuses to sit on the toilet because they’re afraid of falling in.
  • Has frequent accidents but doesn’t seem to notice when they’re wet.
  • Panics over wiping because of how the toilet paper feels.
  • Gets overwhelmed by the bathroom—the flushing sound, bright lights, or strong smells.
  • Seems to make progress, then regresses—leaving you feeling stuck.

If your child has Sensory Processing Disorder, Autism, ADHD, or even no diagnosis at all, sensory challenges could be standing in the way of potty training success.

And until those sensory needs are addressed, no amount of rewards, timers, or reminders will fix the problem.

      Frequently Asked Questions

      What age is this for?

      The Potty Training + Toileting Problems Toolkit is for kids ages 2-10+. It covers both how to start potty training and how to work through ongoing toileting problems related to sensory challenges.

      How long until I see results?

      Every child is different! Some parents see immediate improvement, while others need consistent use of strategies for several weeks. For children with more significant sensory needs, progress can take 6-8 weeks of using the toolkit consistently.
