When you go to the bathroom take your toddler with you, they like to do as you do. If your toddler sees what you do when you go to the potty they will be more at ease when they try. Another idea is to use a stuffed animal or a doll and pretend that it is using the potty, some toddlers can learn from this also. Which is sometimes similar to toilet training.
