By taking annual leave.

About two and a half. My son wasn’t in nursery at that time. My husband and I took a week off work between us. It didn’t take as long as a week though.

I'm currently reading the oh crap potty training book and she goes through the best ways to get it done if you're working.

I haven't potty trained yet but we are planning to potty train in a few weeks when dd is 23 months.

Dd nursery is open term time only so I take off 3 weeks anyway. I'll be training her during the last week before she goes back to nursery. If I don't do it then, I won't be able to do it for ages afterwards.

I think if you can't take work off then you should do it over a weekend, preferably a bank holiday weekend and perhaps take off Friday too and then they should be ok to go back to nursery with most of the potty training already done.
