Circle of Security Parenting Programme
Build your skills and confidence to better support your whānau
At times all parents can feel lost or without a clue about what your child might need from you. Imagine what it would feel like if you were able to make sense of what your child is really asking from you.
The Circle of Security Parenting™ program is based on decades of research about how secure parent-child relationships can be supported and strengthened.
This 1:1 8-week parenting course is facilitated by Hana Xhara Bates (registered Child Psychotherapist).
