Parenting doesn't come with a manual.

It's common to feel lost or unsure about what our child needs from us and how to best meet those needs.

Well you can and there is.

The Circle of Security (COS) Parenting Program is a group coaching program backed by decades of research that
gives you the tools and insight to better understand the needs that underlie our little ones' behaviours.

COS supports you to lean into your own wisdom and find ways to strengthen your bond with your child, love them
for who they are and feel confident in meeting their needs (while still honouring your own).

COS celebrates 'good enough' parenting.

Good enough parenting is all about recognising that we are humans who sometimes make mistakes.
Getting it right 100% of the time is not only impossible, it isn't actually good for our kids.
By learning to lean into ourselves (along with the authenticity and messiness that brings) and embracing
being IN relationship with our children, we offer them a beautiful gift of safety, security and connection.

What if you had the confidence to
be there for your child in the ways that matter?

What if you could show up for your child to
meet their needs while still honouring your own?

What if there was a scientifically proven way to strengthen
your relationship with your child?

How does it work?

Each week (for 8 weeks) we meet via Zoom to work through the chapters of Circle of Security together. The program consists of a combination of videos, exercises and group discussion.

We spend time between sessions digesting, reflecting and practicing what we learned the week before. Each week we invite you to share your ‘Circle Stories’ because once you learn about 'The Circle' -
you start to see it everywhere in daily life with your little ones.

Please note that weekly sessions are not recorded so we can maintain privacy and the integrity of the group nature of the program. This is a guideline from Circle of Security International. If you know you will be away for one of the weeks, you can contact me to arrange a catch up session.

What do we learn?

During the course of this perspective-shifting program, you will:

Understand more about your child’s world and learn to anticipate their emotional needs
Be better equipped to help your child feel and manage their emotions
Gain confidence in your parenting and improve your child's self esteem
Learn to honour your innate wisdom and desire for your child to be secure

Who is it for?

Parents of children aged 0-5 years who want to gain confidence in their parenting, strengthen the bond they have with their child and reflect on the ways in which they were parented.

If you have a history of a complex family dynamic, mental health challenges, abuse or neglect - please consider that therapeutic support from a registered health professional may be more appropriate for you.

What do people say?

"I'm a working mother of 3 beautiful girls ages 8, 5 and 18 months. I wanted to join the Circle of Security Parenting Program to help me show up for my kids in a more conscious way.

Siobhan's expertise and compassionate approach created a welcoming and supportive environment where I felt comfortable sharing my parenting challenges and learning from others.

Her deep understanding of child development and attachment theory, combined with practical strategies, helped me connect with my children on a deeper level.

I left each session feeling empowered and equipped with new tools to foster a secure and loving relationship with my kids. Siobhan's genuine care and dedication
made the workshop a truly transformative experience.

I highly recommend Circle of Security to any parent looking to
strengthen their bond with their children."

Frequently Asked Questions

HOW LONG DO SESSIONS GO FOR?

Sessions will typically go for about a 1 hour - some sessions are longer than others.

CAN MY PARTNER JOIN?

Absolutely, but they have to be all in, committed to coming each week, willing to listen, learn and share - just like you are. To make sure we protect the integrity of the group space, everyone needs to feel as though we are 100% in this together. If your partner will be joining, make sure to let me know on the booking form after you sign up.

MY BABY IS STILL LITTLE! IS IT STILL OKAY TO JOIN?
Yes! The Circle is happening from the minute you meet your baby (actually, from the moment you realise you're pregnant). Some of the things we talk about become more relevant or obvious as your child grows, but the earlier you know about the Circle the better. Starting off on the right foot can make all the difference when it comes to your relationship with one another.

I WON'T HAVE CHILDCARE. CAN I STILL COME?

Navigating life with small humans is tricky! Whilst it will of course it is easier to concentrate and engage when it's just you, you can absolutely still join if your little ones are with you. When in group, just make sure to hit the mute button whenever you need to!

CAN I DO THIS AS A SELF-PACED OPTION?

Unfortunately not. Circle of Security was designed and is intended to run as a group program. The beauty of this program is through reflection and group discussion, where we bounce ideas off one another and bring our thoughts, fears and feelings to the table.

I CAN'T MAKE THIS ROUND, WHEN WILL THE NEXT INTAKE BE?

I'm still finding my feet in running this program, and with a small family of my own I don't yet know how often I'll be able to deliver it. If you can't do this round but are definitely still interested, please join the waitlist and I'll keep you in the loop!

IS THERE A PAYMENT PLAN OPTION?

Absolutely - please email me if you would like to organise this.
