School & Daycare Bathroom Support Bundle

Supporting a child with constipation often means navigating misunderstandings across multiple care settings. Accidents, stool withholding, and bathroom anxiety are frequently misinterpreted as behavioral issues, creating stress for families and caregivers alike.

The School & Daycare Bathroom Support Bundle includes two educational, pediatric GI–informed guides designed to help caregivers understand why bathroom support matters and how simple accommodations can make a meaningful difference.

Written by a pediatric gastroenterology nurse practitioner, these documents provide clear, non-medical explanations that promote collaboration between families, daycare providers, and schools.

What’s included:

• Daycare Constipation Explanation Sheet
Helps daycare providers understand what constipation can look like, why accidents and withholding happen, and how supportive responses help children succeed.

• School Bathroom Access Support Sheet
Explains why timely, flexible bathroom access is important for children with constipation and how supportive school accommodations benefit health and learning.

Both guides are one-page, printable PDFs designed to be shared easily with caregivers and school staff.

Educational information only. These resources are not medical diagnoses, treatment plans, or provider letters and do not replace guidance from a child’s healthcare provider.
