Is toilet learning supported in the Toddler Program?

While Bowman’s Children’s House celebrates independence in all forms, toilet learning happens before your child joins the fun. According to the Montessori toilet learning policy at Bowman, preschool enrollment requires children to be toilet-trained prior to joining the program. That said, once they’re in, their newfound bathroom confidence is put to great use. Children are encouraged to manage their own self-care routines, and you’ll see that same spirit of “I can do it myself” carried through everything they do. So while the formal potty training phase isn’t part of the Toddler or Preschool curriculum, Bowman definitely builds on that foundation with pride, patience, and lots of opportunities to keep practicing independence—one trip to the toilet at a time.
