How It Works

Julie Fellom, the founder of Diaper-Free Toddlers and Lora Jensen, a self-proclaimed potty training queen are two of the go-to experts on this method. Each has their own spin on the method but here are some of the basics of the 3-day method:

  • Find 3 consecutive days in your calendar when you can work full-time on potty training. No one will be coming in or out of the house.
  • If your child has never used a potty before, ensure they are comfortable using the potty before your start the 3-day training.
  • In the days leading up to the weekend, talk to your child openly about potty training and explain that in a few days they won't need diapers anymore because they will be going pee and poo on the potty.
  • Have cleaning supplies handy to clean up any accidents.
