Public Bathrooms

You've been potty training your little one and so far things are moving along smoothly. She has figured out how to use the potty and there are hardly any accidents. It is time to finally venture outside the home without training pants. This of course means that she will have to start using public restrooms.

Using an unfamiliar bathroom can be a bit of a challenge for both parent and child during this stage. Here are some tips to make the adjustment easier on both of you. Before you know it your little girl will be comfortable using a public restroom.

Don't Leave Your Child Unattended In A Public Bathroom

Always accompany a small child into a public restroom. Unfortunately you just never know who might be hanging out in there. Play it save and stay with your child. For women it is usually acceptable to take a small boy into the lady's room. For a father, taking his daughter may be a little trickier. Check out the men's restroom. If there is a stall that is somewhat clean and there is no one standing at the urinals, it is perfectly fine to take your daughter in there. If the lady's room is the only option, Dad could stay at the door and walk his daughter through the process, making sure you stay in verbal contact. If the lady's room is completely empty, he can also take her inside, and let other women coming in know he's there. Just jell something along the lines of "Dad in here, just a minute".

Keeping these suggestions in mind, go ahead and venture out with your potty-trained child. After a few trips to the public restroom she will be a pro at it and you won't believe you ever had to worry about it.
