3 year old goes potty at home but will not at babysitters, What to do?


My son just started going potty (pee) about a week ago. At home he goes by him self and never has an accident. But this week we have been trying to get him to go at the baby sitters and he refuses. What can I do to make him want to go when he is there?

Answers:
Maybe have him take something from the bathroom at home that makes him feel more comfortable at the babysitter's house.... like a comfort item... hope it helps!
How different is the evironment at the baby sitters than at your home. Is it loud and noisey, is there equal privacy, Have them try set times to encourage him to use the toilet. It could be he is just having too much fun to go. Have you tried to take her to the bathroom when you are there. And if he is accompanied by a staff member have her him with you. The child may be shy and need your reassurance that it is o.k.
