My son has a condition that requires him to wear diapers, and will never be fully potty trained. We catheterize him every couple of hours. In other resorts, I'll accompany him to the kids clubs, stayed there till he's done with potty stuff, and then can leave him there for 2-3 hours w/o any toilet trips or any accidents.

Will he ever be allowed in the Disney kids club? Will the club accommodate SN children with diapers? I don't mind staying with him the entire time. Will they even allow this? He's 4 and just love to play with other kids / toys in clubs.

TIA.
 
As far as I know they do not make exceptions to the toilet trained requirement.
 
I would consider Cunard as they do not have a toilet trained requirement.
 
This is def. a question you should call and ask the Disney Resort. Even with a strict policy they may make an exception if given notice.

Side note- if you are going the first week of May we can set a play date with my two sons- ages 3 and 4. They are always ready to make new friends!

I may be wrong, and if I am I hope someone corrects me, but I don't think adults are allowed to stay in the clubs at all. I thought it was strictly drop off and pick-up. From the Disney site about the Neverland Club at Poly:

"Bid your little darlings adieu at Wendy Darling's bedroom, the magical entryway to the Never Land Club. The whole center is elaborately themed after the beloved Disney animated classic Peter Pan.

No grownups are allowed past this point—the adventure that lies beyond is just for kids! Tots climb through the window in Wendy's pink-wallpapered room to emerge in a fantastical land where London's nighttime skyline, Indian teepees, Skull Rock, pirate ships and enchanted forests all appear side by side."

Not sure of the exact rules of all the clubs, but I've never heard of a parent being allowed to stay.

As a general rule, they do not allow children who are not toilet trained.

But, because your child is still diapered because of a disability, there are requirements for care providers to offer reasonable accommodations to meet needs related to his disability.
They would not be required to change him or catheterize him, or to let you stay with him.
But, things like allowing you to come for catheterizations or calling you if he needs changing would be reasonable accommodations.
Other people have posted in the past that they called ahead of time and arranged for similar accommodations.
