Saving the world one nappy at a time
Children are being potty trained ever later. In the 1940s, most children were potty trained at around 12 months. Now, they are 3 years old on average. This negatively affects the environment and children’s health. At the same time many parents struggle with potty training. They are unsure whether their child is ready or how to best train their child. Often this leads to delayed potty training.
We say goodbye to the habit of late potty training. For most children, 18 months is a great age for potty training. We support parents and nurseries to start potty training on time and make the process fun, smooth and in line with your nursery’s educational vision. Let’s go potty together!
With the Go Potty® approach, children are potty trained 6 to 12 months earlier than average.
How does Go Potty® work for nurseries?
Parents potty train their child

Nurseries and child health centres stimulate parents
Nurseries, child health centres and other partners stimulate parents to start potty training and inform them about the free access to the Go Potty® app.

Why potty train?
Build confidence and prevent health issues
Getting potty trained is a big step for children towards independence. They no longer rely on their caretakers to change them and wipe their bums. They can do it themselves! A big boost for their confidence and self esteem. And once children have tackled the potty training hurdle, they have more space to develop other cognitive and motoric skills.
Besides that, if children start potty training late (after 3 years) they have a higher chance at health issues such as constipation and bed wetting.
Reduce workload and save on nappy costs
Changing nappies is much more work than helping children to go potty. Once our program is fully implemented you actually save time and reduce the work pressure for your nursery staff. Your staff will thank you for it later 😉
Besides that, earlier potty training can be a great saving. You can reduce your nappy and waste disposal costs by 30% to 50%.
Happy and healthy planet for our children
Disposable nappies have a detrimental impact on the environment. For your nursery roughly 50% of your waste comes from disposable nappies.
Stimulating parents to start potty training on time can lead to a 30% to 50% reduction in your nappy waste and related CO2 emissions.
Less waste and less CO2 = a happier and healthier planet. Together, we make a difference – for children, parents and the world of tomorrow.
What do I need to do?
We drop by for a cup of coffee (or tea 😉) to see how we can help you. We really want to understand what your children, your parents and your nursery need.
Start small: together we do a trial period at a few nursery locations. This includes comms support, training your staff and measuring effectiveness.
Go all in: we evaluate the trial period together and discuss how to roll out further at your nursery.
