Supports and strengthens child-parent relationships
Circle of Security is an evidence-based program that supports and strengthens child-parent relationships. Research shows that children who experience a secure relationship with at least one parent have better health, stronger relationships and better educational outcomes into their future.
Learn about
- Your child’s emotional world by learning to read their emotional needs
- How to support your child to manage their emotions successfully
- Developing your child’s self-esteem
- How to honour our innate wisdom and desire for your child to be secure.

This program is for
Parents, carers and family members of children aged 0-12 years.
Priority will be given to families of children with disabilities or developmental concerns for their child.
