Elimination Communication is a gentle, non-coercive way to respond to a baby’s natural hygiene needs, from as early as birth. Like all mammals, human babies instinctually resist soiling themselves, their sleep space, and their caregivers, and they clearly communicate about it from birth. With EC, we learn baby's signals and natural rhythms and assist them with this process until they naturally gain independence (usually by 9-18 months of age). With EC, we tune into what our babies are born asking for, team up to help them use the toilet while they develop motor skills and long-term memory, and eventually teach them how to do it themselves. It's a very natural transition to toilet independence. Parents who EC use the diaper as a "back-up" instead of a permanent, wearable toilet. We invest our time up-front (not as much as you'd guess) so we don't have to potty train and reteach our children to go in the toilet later. EC can be done part-time, with or without diapers, with any type of potty...but the top hat potty makes EC dramatically easier. The top hat potty bowl is "Go Diaper Free" author Andrea Olson's top recommended tool for doing elimination communication with a newborn baby. The top hat potty helps the world by: Reducing the barriers to starting Elimination Communication for parents worldwide - These potties make EC so much easierReducing diaper waste - ECed babies typically use less than 1/2 the diapers of non-ECed babiesHelping parents stick with EC because they now have the right tools - longevity! Do your part and conveniently start using the toilet with your baby, today...reducing the number of diapers in the landfill and helping your baby stay clean and feel heard. <3
