The Jolly Good Potty Training Manual
This is not just a potty training guide. It is a roadmap for what to do when potty training gets hard—and the support most families wish they had from the beginning...
If you’ve spent any time researching potty training, you’ve probably already encountered countless tips, methods, and opinions. Pieces of what you need are everywhere—but rarely in one clear, simple, and supportive place.
The problem with most potty training advice is not that it’s wrong. It’s that it’s incomplete.
Potty training, much like sleep training, is highly nuanced. When families struggle, it’s often not because they are doing everything wrong, but rather we need to ask ourselves:
“What might we be doing too much of? What could we be doing too little of? Have we skipped or rushed any of the fundamental pieces in order to hurry up the process or make life ”easier”?
Generic guides give you steps, but they don’t teach you how to adapt when your child resists, melts down, or seems completely uninterested.
This guide was created to be different.
Instead of offering a one-size-fits-all plan, this guide gives you:
- Clear, proven strategies for setting your child up for success from the start
- Practical troubleshooting tools for when things don’t go as planned
- Emotional and behavioral insight into why your child may be resisting
- Simple scripts so you know exactly what to say in hard moments
- Guidance for strong-willed, anxious, or older children
- Advanced troubleshooting for the real-life “what now?” moments most guides ignore
Together, we will bust common myths, streamline the process, and help you move forward with a calm, clear plan—so you can finally say goodbye to diapers and begin celebrating dry days with your child in a matter of days, not months.
