Girls mature more quickly than boys and so are usually ready to potty train earlier. However, they can also be more sensitive to the process as a whole. In Potty Training Girls, Dr Caroline Fertleman and Simone Cave provide a clear step-by-step guide, taking parents through preparation; introducing and encouraging your daughter to use the potty; troubleshooting and much more.
This invaluable parenting guide also includes:
- Checklists for both mental and physical signs that show your daughter is ready to potty train
- Guidance on what kind of behaviour to expect and how to manage it
- Sensitive advice if your daughter is a late starter or a 'rebel'
Potty Training Girls ensures that parents, and their daughters, pass this important milestone calmly, without worry or stress, and shows that it can even be fun!

Starred review. In June 2009, I gave a starred review to Fertleman and Cave's Potty Training Boys the Easy Way . This version for girls is just as excellent. Physician Fertleman (writing with health editor Cave) knows just how to present the relevant information to parents, covering topics like early preparation, night training, and common medical problems. Among the plethora of books on potty training (which include some idiotic titles that endorse 'naturally training' six-month-olds), Fertleman's two offerings should be the go-to titles for all things poop and pee. Unequivocally recommended. * Library Journal *
This is a great resource for parents trying to tackle the potty training issue! * Parent Magazine *
