It’s such a shame that they have to resort to this. At least they are admitting they can’t do it but if they already have a housekeeper to look after their daughter why not offer her the extra money to potty train their daughter. Hopefully they don’t get too much backlash or abuse.

It’s a bit sad that their jobs are really demanding and they don’t have as much time with their little one. But if you do have limited time, you would want to spend it doing fun things with your child and not spend the time toilet training. However, I do hope that they will be continuing to work with their child and the potty trainer and not think that they shouldn’t have to take when it’s just them

I wish I had money to throw around like that. If someone is already looking after the child while the parents are at work why can’t they do it. I really hope they spend quality time with their daughter when they arent working. Work should never be more important than family. My son wasn’t toilet trained until around 3. I had tried earlier but he simply wasn’t ready. When we did finally do it, it only took us a few days and we were done. There has been the odd accident but nothing major.

It’s a tedious task but it doesn’t happen overnight. Not all kids are toilet trained easily and definitely not all by 3.
I guess if I had the option to outsource I might consider it

No. It takes time. You need to be persistent and consistent by planning and making sure you don’t have too much on . it works. Just take the time.

If you’re paying someone to care for your child kn the hours that you cant be there, why is the person they are already paying not teaching them?

I potty trained my kids very easily with persistence and rewards. In this case if the parents are not at home much, since they work long hours then I think getting someone else to potty train their child is okay. They should be consistent with the potty training i.e. they follow the same method as the trainer so the child does not get confused and praise the child for his success in learning to sit on the pot.

Wow I get paying someone to look after your child if your working but paying someone to toilet train your child this is all part of being a parent
Just seems lazy

They pay for someone to look after there child & now they wanted to pay someone to toilet train there child do these parents do anything with there child l know they are busy with work But children need attention from there parents But that’s only my opinion

I am not surprise it is the most stress full time for parents.

Very interesting, both my little ones led the potty training when they were ready, but whatever works for this family, if they are genuinely busy & can afford it.

Just couldn’t believe this when I read it. Guess it takes all types.

There are those who are very experienced at toilet training and I believe that they have a great idea of sorting it out – but I believe it takes two days fulltime to toilet train a child effectively. At three years of age this should occur very easily with someone concentrating on it.

I don’t agree. Some kids aren’t mentally ready at 3 each child will learn and tell you when they are ready

I would not….it was the easiest thing to do with mine two kids.

Why don’t they put her in Family Day Care and whoever has her to toilet train her. Women who do that job in their own homes are experienced with caring for little ones

My son all but toilet trained himself a couple of weeks after he turned 3. I’d tried half heartedly a few times in the year before but it just stressed him out so I let him take the lead. It was all a big non event considering how terrified I was about it.

Oh, well, this is something different at least! They surely don’t have problems of money if they are willing to pay $100 an hour. Their money, their child, their choice. Let’s hope it functions!
