Meet Brihgid Weeks | Potty Training Consultant

We had the good fortune of connecting with Brihgid Weeks and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Brihgid, can you walk us through the thought-process of starting your business?
Motherhood has built me stronger than I ever knew I could be. When my oldest son was diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder at just 15 months old, I had to quickly grieve the life I thought he would have and embarked on a journey of advocacy and resource-finding to support him in every possible way. During the early stages of the pandemic, I enrolled him in Florida’s early steps program, where I had the privilege of meeting incredible women dedicated to teaching families and caregivers how to increase their child’s participation in daily activities and routines while learning basic life skills. Our home became a hub of various therapies, including Occupational Therapy, Physical Therapy, Speech Therapy, Infant Toddler Specialists, and ABA therapy. I am forever indebted to these wonderful teachers and the support & knowledge they have instilled in me and my children. They have changed our lives forever and have inspired me to help other families by completing my RBT training and starting my company, Potty Poppins.

Helping other families has become a passion of mine through this beautiful community. When I went through my son’s potty training week, our therapists couldn’t believe how quickly I was able to train him prior to age 2. So, they connected me with other moms who were having trouble and word of mouth spread! I quickly became “Potty Poppins”.
I also quickly found that this service wasn’t just for special needs kiddos like our autism potty training. The majority of my clients are from busy hardworking families who need some extra support.

I make the potty training journey fun, and seamless. I travel right to your doorstep and all services are personalized in the comfort of your own home. I feel that children are able to learn and feel most comfortable learning in their own territory.

Potty training doesn’t need to be a daunting task! I make it fun and exciting for my clients while offering reliable methods and consistent support, so they can conquer this major life milestone with confidence and ease!
I also donate 5% of all service proceeds to a wonderful organization that helps the autism community and their families “OAR – Organization for Autism Research”.

Can you open up a bit about your work and career? We’re big fans and we’d love for our community to learn more about your work.

Who else deserves some credit and recognition?
To all of the wonderful pediatric therapists that dedicated their careers to helping our children.
