Circle of Security

This early intervention program offers tools to strengthen bonds with your children and help them feel more secure. Grounded in research, you’ll discover ways to develop your child’s self-esteem and their ability to forge healthy relationships both within and outside the family.

Overview

Who It's For

Circle of Security is for parents and carers of children aged 0 to 12 years old who would like to develop secure relationship bonds with their children to help them thrive.

How We Help

Our facilitators will help you identify the ways children signal their need for greater connection and emotional support, and how you can meet those needs effectively. Secure children have higher self-esteem and are kinder to those around them.

What to Expect

Weekly workshops are held online for eight to 12 participants. Through information, group discussions, self-reflection, and goal setting, you’ll see how your child’s behaviour reflects their needs, and build skills to support those needs during the easy times, and the hard ones.
