Between about 18 months and 4 years, children want to do everything “by myself” – reach the sink, climb onto the toilet, help in the kitchen. A good step stool supports that independence, but only if it is stable, non-slip and the right height.
What to look for in a toddler step stool
1. A non-slip base
Bathroom tiles get wet. Rubber feet or a rubber rim underneath stop the stool sliding when your child climbs on.
2. Textured, anti-slip steps
Smooth plastic is slippery with wet feet. Look for raised textures on every step.
3. Two steps instead of one tall step
A two-step design lets little ones climb in stages – the lower step to get up, the higher one to stand at the sink or toilet. It’s easier and safer than one high jump.
4. A wide footprint
The wider the base, the harder it is to tip.
5. Smooth, rounded edges and child-safe plastic
No sharp corners for bumps and falls, and material that is easy to wipe clean.
6. Carry handles
You’ll move the stool between bathroom, kitchen and bedroom – handles make that easy for you and even for your child.

Safety tips
- Always supervise young children on a step stool.
- Place it on a dry floor and check it doesn’t rock before use.
- Teach your child to face the sink or toilet and keep both feet on the step.
- Keep it away from windows, hobs and anything hot.
Using it for potty training
Combine the stool with a child toilet seat: the stool lets your child climb up independently and gives their feet support while sitting, which many children find more comfortable and confidence-building.
