Circle of Security Parenting
Dayspring Trust is a Registered Agency for Circle of Security Parenting© DVD.
The Circle of Security® is an innovative intervention program designed to alter the developmental pathway of parents and their young children.
The Circle of Security® integrates over fifty years of early childhood attachment research into a video-based intervention to strengthen parents ability to observe and improve their caregiving capacity. Attachment theory, through the Circle of Security®, offers clear, individualized pathways for providing a secure relationship between parent and child.
Circle of Security has established an eight week DVD parenting education programme, offering the core components of the evidenced-based and internationally acclaimed COS® protocol
Every Child comes into the world seeking a secure relationship with her/his caregivers. A secure attachment between child and caregiver is critical to a child’s current and future well-being. The Circle of Security© program helps promote that security.
