Circle of Security Parenting (COS-P) is an evidence-based approach designed to empower parents and caregivers to better understand and address the emotional needs of their children. The program is centred on attachment theory and focuses on fostering secure attachment bonds for positive, healthier outcomes, emotional regulation and overall well-being for positive child development. 

Key focus areas include providing a secure, safe and supportive base from which children can safely explore and return (the Circle). Providing a safe haven for children, being emotionally available and responsive to help children regulate their emotions when they are upset. Breaking unhelpful patterns to promote constructive responses to challenging behaviours and develop self-awareness to deeply understand their children's emotions and behaviours.

We are certified facilitators and look forward to chatting if you are interested in learning more about how this program can benefit you and your family.

We understand that parenting is often complex and challenging and that no parent is perfect. 

Parenting based on the "good enough" model, emphasises that parents do not need to be perfect.

Instead, it encourages realistic expectations, responsiveness to a child's needs, setting boundaries, and learning from parenting mistakes. This approach values flexibility, unconditional love, and the creation of a nurturing environment for healthy child development. It alleviates the pressure of striving for perfection in parenting, focusing on the importance of a loving and supportive parent-child relationship.

We'd love to chat if you would like to know more about the "good enough" parenting model or any other areas in which we could support you.
