Toileting

Children are  admitted to  our  school in  all  stages of toilet learning and readiness. The following is a  list  of  supplies used for  this service

DIAPERING/POTTY TRAINING SUPPLIES PROVIDE BY THE SCHOOL

• Disposable gloves  used  to  do  diaper changes
• Paper Towels
• Changing tables that  are  disinfected before and  after  each  use.
• Lidded container for soiled diapers and wipes. This garbage is taken  out  throughout the day.

DIAPERING/POTTY TRAINING SUPPLIES PROVIDE BY THE PARENT / GUARDIAN

• Each month parents must bring in a  large container of wipes
• Disposable diapers (no other diapers allowed at our school)
• Labeled  diaper rash cream or lotion

LABELING: Please label the diaper box so that we can check you off that the  items required were brought into the school. You will be charged a fee if you do not replenish the required diapering materials. Diaper changes are scheduled and recorded every 1½  to  2 hours (or as needed) with the exception of nap time in which case each child will be diapered when he/she awakens. Any lotion or cream brought in must have your child’s name on it.

POTTY TRAINING TIME:  Parents/Guardians  and Teachers will work out a  toileting plan when the child shows an interest to use the toilet. In order to be successful in this training, it is important that  both parents and staff are  consistent in their techniques. The teachers will use the plan with your child and report regularly to the parent about the progress or problems in its application. The goal is to have the child use the toilet without adult help.  Children who are  being potty trained will be encouraged to use the potty every 20 minutes. All  soiled clothing will be put into a labeled plastic bag.  The bagged soiled clothing will be put on the child’s hook in the Welcoming Room.
