How to get a very stubborn 2 year old to use the potty

Any tips would be helpful, my 2 year old (was 2 in feb this yr) who is due to start nursery in September - she is proving difficult to train. Kicks up a massive fuss. My eldest wasn't this bad to train even though did have some difficulties. She wears size 7 pull ups but is hardly making use of them. She will wee and poo and not even mention she has done so unless we check and or smell she's done something.

Does anyone have any tips, or just hearing others experiences would help me feel less stressed about it.

Is she aware she’s had a wee or poo? She just may not be ready for toilet training yet.

Still very young. Leave it until nearer three.

We left it to closer to 3 and used sweets, not ideal but a PDA profile so could be challenging. It only took a couple of days.

Wait? The earliest child of mine was trained at 2yrs 9 months, the latest after his 4th birthday. They do it when they are ready.
