How to make potty training stress free for you and your child The Gentle Potty Training Book is a practical guide to helping your child through one of the most important developmental stages of early childhood.

Avoiding strict timelines, rewards and plans that are based solely on a child's gender, Sarah Ockwell-Smith advocates an approach that is based on your child's unique developmental stage - because the gentlest, easiest and most effective potty training happens when you work with your child as a team.

Sarah's advice includes:

• Recognising the physical and emotional signs that your child is ready
• How to talk to your child about potty training and prepare them emotionally
• What you need to get started - the practicalities
• How to respond to accidents and setbacks
• Potty training your child when you're in full-time work or co-parenting
• The when and how of night-time potty training
