When your toddler is ready for nighttime potty training -- AFTER daytime training is completely mastered -- start out by working on reducing liquids right before bed. That isn't easy for toddlers who like to have a drink before they turn over and go to sleep. But it is a wise move, since toddlers frequently won't wake themselves up to go in the middle of the night.
It makes sense to have your toddler spend time using the potty right before bed. This is true even if the toddler says he doesn't have to go. You want them to get into the habit of potty before bed.
You may need to wake your child to use the potty once during the night. That is a matter of trial and error. And frankly the trial and error process is a good reason to have a rubber mattress covers.
