The Circle of Security framework aids caregivers in interpreting their child's behaviours in a way that enhances their ability to meet the child's needs.
Parents participating in the Circle of Security program learn to:

Understand their child’s emotional world by learning to read their emotional needs
Support their child’s ability to successfully manage emotions
Enhance the development of their child's self-esteem
Honor their innate desire for independence
Promote the child’s feeling of security
Respond to the child’s need for connection
