Toilet training children with additional needs & disabilities – CPD accreditedSign up for our CPD accredited webinar for practitionersBook now In this article Introduction All children learn to use the potty or toilet at a different stage in their life. Most children start to show an interest in moving on to a potty or toilet at about two years old. Children with additional needs may not be ready to start until they are older. This workshop will help you to understand when they are ready and how to start so you can better support the families you work with. This workshop is aimed at practitioners working with children aged 0-5 but will also have some useful information for those working with older children. Meet the trainer This webinar is delivered by Family Support Consultant Charlotte Amison who has been supporting families with disabled children and children with additional needs for the past 18 years.
