Introduction to Infant Potty Training / Elimination Communication
Saturdays, 10am – Noon in El Cerrito – February 15, March 15, and April 26
$35 per family – Babies and caregivers welcome!
Infant Potty Training / Elimination Communication (EC) is an easy, gentle, non-coercive way of teaching infants to eliminate (pee/poop) in a potty instead of a diaper. The concept is not a new one. It is currently practiced in many countries around the world and has been for hundreds of years. In fact, 50% of the world’s babies are potty trained by 1 year of age! (The average in the USA is 3 or 4!)
This introductory class will give you a clear understanding of how EC works and the tools to practice it with your baby comfortably and in a non-stressful way. EC can be practiced occasionally, part-time, or full-time. It is not an “all or nothing” practice. It can also be done whether you use cloth or disposable diapers and if you have other caregivers.

By encouraging a “keep it simple” approach with attention to personal intuition I empower parents to birth and parent their children in a way that works for each unique family.
I have been an Infant Potty Training / Elimination Communication Educator since starting the practice with my own daughter in 2007 and am a Bay Area Diaper Free Baby Mentor.
I became a Certified Birth and Postpartum Doula in 2008 with Cornerstone Doula Trainings just after the birth of my daughter (now 6) and have since been providing doula services throughout the Bay Area. I have continued to augment my initial certification with classes and workshops on a variety of topics including breast feeding, herbal support during pregnancy and postpartum, homeopathy, and massage. I also provide Holistic Baby & Family care beyond Postpartum.
