Circle of Security Parenting

Circle of Security International

At times all parents feel lost or without a clue about what our child might need from us. Imagine what it might feel like if you were able to make sense of what your child was really asking from you. The Circle of Security Parenting™ program is based on decades of research about how secure parent-child relationships can be supported and strengthened.

  • "We are very impressed with the results of putting what we learned into action. Our kids are easier read and understood by us. We are less stressed in many interactions with our children. We recommend this course because its brought so much grounding to our family."

    Key Takeaway, Former Participant

  • "I think it's important to realize that children's needs aren't all that different from ours. It is important to put yourself in the child's shoes and try to approach the situation from their point of view. Additionally, it is equally important to be aware of your own anxieties and fears and not let those impact how you interact with your child."

    Key Takeaway, Former Participant

  • "That raising secure children just takes patience, observation, understanding and self reflection. Also, don’t have guilt, we are all doing our best."

    Key Takeaway, Former Participant

  • "I really enjoyed learning about the circle of security itself. I think it taught me such important things for my future as well as offered insight into situations I can see around me. I really like the concept as a visual tool and feel like it helps me to understand what children really need. I can already see such positive influence of it."
