The Circle of Security Parenting Program is a quarterly (Q1 & Q3) class that uses decades of research to help parents develop and strengthen secure parent-child relationships.

Babies 0-4 months may remain with their caregiver during class; all other children must attend childcare. The content in Q1 & Q3 will be the same, this class isn't a continuation.
