Nanny to Mommy

Potty Training. I said once the new year hit, we were going to buckle down and get it done. But how do you teach an unwilling student? Seriously. I am researching and trying every trick in the book. In all my searching, the number one tip is to be prepared! Be prepared that they'll have accidents, be prepared to clean up, and be prepared to reward as well. So I have compiled a list of products that make potty training easier and help make you more prepared.

 It's going slow, so I was excited to get the chance to review a new Potty Training Kit from Kandoo to help make this journey a little easier.

I am no newbie when it comes to potty training. Besides successfully potty training my daughter, I was a nanny for five years before becoming a mom. Obviously. Hence the blog's name. Nanny to Mommy. Anyways, I have even helped potty train a boy, but I have never had to help guide a strong-willed child through potty training and Peanut is definitely a strong-willed child. Since this is very new territory for me, I need all the help I can get.

 

Pull-Ups® has this new potty training personality quiz. You answer some questions and find out whether your child is a squirrel, turtle, puppy, owl, or bear.

I received complimentary products to provide this post. All opinions are my own.

My son turned TWO! Where does the time go? His little personality is showing that he has definitely two. Others have told me that it tends to be a boy thing because he can get so aggressive one moment and then so sweet the next. Whatever it is, it's something new for me.

So if you have been following my blog for a little while, then you know that my son is 20 months old. Yep, you read that right. Can you believe it has been that long since I had him? Being the almost two year old that he is, I have started to think about potty training. Why? Because he is actually showing signs of readiness. He will come to me when he needs a diaper change, he will leave the room to go, and then he will find me to tell me he is stinky.

So it's time to start dusting off my potty training tips. I had a girl the first time around, but I was a nanny so I have a little experience potty training a boy. Here's a list I have created with my tips, including an essentials list:
