A neuroaffirmative toilet-learning visual guide supporting comfort, predictability, and autonomy.
The I Can Sit on the Toilet Social Visual Guide is a carefully structured, child-centred resource designed to support Autistic and neurodivergent children as they build familiarity and confidence with sitting on the toilet. Created using clear, consistent visuals and reassuring language, this guide breaks the experience into predictable, manageable steps without pressure or expectation.
This set includes two complete versions of the guide:
Boy version
Girl version
This allows families and professionals to choose the representation that best fits the child they are supporting, promoting identity safety, relatability, and emotional comfort.
A full step-by-step social visual sequence showing:
Going into the bathroom
Walking to the toilet
Pulling down clothing
Sitting on the toilet
Waiting for a comfortable amount of time (with flexible counting options)
Pulling clothing back up
Leaving the bathroom
Hand washing and drying
Visual reassurance around practising with underwear or pull-ups, recognising that readiness is individual and non-linear
Visual support to use comfort supports such as fidgets or small toys while sitting
A positive, affirming closing message that centres pride and self-recognition rather than external praise
All visuals are intentionally clear, uncluttered, and supportive of visual processing needs, as demonstrated throughout the guide
Autistic children and other neurodivergent children
Families supporting toilet learning at home
Early years educators and primary school staff
SNAs, support staff, and therapists using visual supports
Toileting support plans in homes, schools, and clinical settings
