[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We've been potty training our now 3 year old. She's doing okay at home, we've been in pants and had some success. We still use pull ups when out but she's good and has more success than accidents.

We send her to pull ups at daycre until she's a little more reliable as per policy requirements. However we've found they've been putting her in diapers throughout the day and it's started to cause huge regression back to limited success at home.  How do I challenge daycare about this? [b]Is there a reason they'd be doing this?[/b][/quote]

Yes. The reason is that they are not the parents of the child. They really are looking at their convenience. They do not give a damn. [/quote]

Op here, I did worry this, but I'm not sure how we make their breakthrough. [b]If she's got no consistency  she's not going to succeed.[/b] And we're out of any leave we can dedicate to just focusing on this for a couple of weeks to make that breakthrough. I'm not sure how we can get this done.[/quote]

Yes she will.  I worried about this with my first when she didn’t train in a 3 day weekend.  I talked to daycare about supporting it and they said effectively that she was too young/they weren’t going to help.  Basically they’d let her go if she initiated but that was it.  She was in pull-ups but they were effectively treated like diapers.  They said I could send her with undies over her pull-ups but what’s the point in that?  So I just kept at it on weekends and when she had a whole weekend with not accidents I sent her to daycare in undies.  She had a whole week without accidents at daycare, then a week where she had a couple but they didn’t switch her back at that point and had been good ever since.  Of course it would easier and quicker if they would really help with training but they don’t always and it doesn’t mean your child won’t get it.[/quote]

Thank you, probably also what I need to hear. It's challenging enough with the baby and getting this done, and my wife is away for an extended period with work so I can't dedicate time around daycare days, just the weekends on this. She's trying really hard but as I know 3 is too old and I should have managed to train her earlier.[/quote]
