Circle of Security strengthens the parent–child relationship by helping caregivers understand and respond to their child’s emotional needs. By supporting both exploration and comfort, it builds trust, secure attachment, and stronger co-regulation between parent and child. The Circle of Security is a visual framework for understanding attachment and is used in parent education and support programs. It helps caregivers recognize and respond to children’s needs by showing the balance between a child’s desire to explore the world and their need to return for comfort and reassurance. Within this model, the caregiver’s role is to provide both a secure base for exploration and a safe haven for emotional support. Free | Wednesdays | 8:30 - 10:00 AM Available Quarter 1 and 3 of ECFE Recommended for families with children 0-36 months. Childcare provided | Babies 0-6 months remain with caregiver.
