Toileting

Children are not required to be potty trained, and staff will change heavily soiled diapers as needed. Teachers are willing to work with parents to help assess a child’s readiness and support potty training methods and schedules. Our teachers have potty trained many children over the years, so please seek and follow their advice. Parents and teachers work together to determine when a child is ready to wear underwear to school. Teachers always wear gloves when performing a diaper change.

Children who are in the midst of potty training should come to school with multiple sets of extra underwear and clothes, not just the one required change of clothes.
