Circle of Security Parenting (COSP) is one of the most respected parenting programmes in the world. It’s based on decades of research into how children develop and what they actually need from the adults who love them most.

It’s not about techniques or tricks. It’s about understanding your child’s emotional world, recognising what they’re asking for, and learning how to respond in a way that builds real security.

When children feel secure, everything gets easier. Sleep. Behaviour. Connection. All of it.

COSP has been used with hundreds of thousands of families globally. I’ve completed the programme myself, and it’s one of the most powerful things I’ve ever experienced as both a parent and an early childhood professional.

What You’ll Learn

Over 7 weeks, you’ll explore:

• The Circle of Security: a simple but powerful map of your child’s emotional needs
• What your child is communicating through their behaviour (even when it’s hard to read)
• How your own history shapes the way you parent, and how to work with that, not against it
• How to stay regulated when your child is dysregulated
• What “being a secure base” really means, and how to be one, even on the hard days
• Practical tools for building connection, managing big emotions, and responding with confidence
• Each session includes video content, guided reflection, and group discussion in a warm, supportive space.

This programme is for you if:

• You have a child aged between 4 months – 10 years old
• You have a child and want to understand them better
• You feel like you’re doing everything “right” but something still feels off
• Your child’s behaviour is challenging and you’re not sure how to respond
• You want a stronger connection with your child but aren’t sure how to build it
• You’re navigating big feelings (yours or theirs) and could use some support
• You want to break patterns from your own childhood that keep showing up in your parenting
