In this episode, I invited Maru Rojas - an Aware Parenting Instructor and EC & Potty Learning Consultant - to share her experience and knowledge on something many parents find challenging: potty/toilet learning.
Maru shares her journey into Elimination Communication (EC), potty learning and Aware Parenting.
We then discuss:
- what is EC and how it looks for different families
- how to start EC with your baby
- the difference between EC and potty learning
- how older children can have more feelings around potty learning than younger children
- cultural differences in potty learning
- plus so much more

ABOUT MARU:
Maru is an Aware Parenting instructor from Mexico and currently lives in London where she co-parent 2 young children. She has a keen interest in Elimination Communication and Potty learning as a way to help children be aware and learn about their bodies. Maru also loves looking at Aware parenting as a holistic philosophy for raising children and re-parenting ourselves and it is through AwP that she's come to understand that children are inherently good and whole and that our role as parents is to trust their own perfect wisdom.
