Circle of Security Parenting Program

Circle of Security Parenting in Australia – Built for Real Life

Our Circle of Security Parenting in Australia courses are designed for real families. You don’t need any background in child psychology—just a willingness to explore how your child communicates through their behaviour.

During the course, you’ll explore how children seek safety and connection, especially when they’re upset, frustrated, or unsure. The training offers practical language and frameworks that help make sense of common parenting struggles.

You’ll leave with tools you can use straight away like: how to stay close when your child is upset, when to step back to support independence, and how to repair moments of disconnect.

We often run Circle of Security Parenting classes as part of our broader family support services, alongside programs like: 

• Child protection training
• Trauma informed training
• Protective behaviours education

Circle of Security Parenting Courses With Ongoing Support

At PB West, we understand parenting can feel isolating. Our Circle of Security Parenting courses create a space where you feel supported, understood, and empowered.

Delivered by experienced facilitators, each session includes video reflections, group discussion, and real-world strategies. You’ll explore your parenting style, identify your child’s emotional cues, and learn how to respond in ways that build trust and resilience.

This course isn’t about fixing your child. It’s about learning how to read what they need and offering the safe base they’re asking for—even when they don’t have the words.

Our approach complements other developmental programs and aligns naturally with the Circle of Security attachment framework. The tools you gain in this course can be used at home, in schools, and in early learning environments.

Circle of Security Parenting Courses Online

We know it’s not always easy to attend in-person training, which is why we offer Circle of Security Parenting courses online. These flexible sessions are ideal for parents and carers who need accessible support without compromising on quality.

The Circle of Security parent training online includes everything from our in-person program—interactive learning, video content, reflective exercises, and guided support—all delivered in a safe, virtual format.

Each week, you’ll focus on a new theme, from recognising emotional needs to building consistent responses. You’ll work at your own pace, supported by a facilitator who understands the challenges you face.

Why COS Parenting Works

COS parenting works because it’s not about control—it’s about connection. By understanding the emotional needs behind a child’s behaviour, you can respond in a way that builds safety and strengthens your bond.

The Parenting Circle of Security approach helps reduce conflict, manage difficult moments, and build a foundation for lifelong emotional resilience. You’ll come away with more confidence in your parenting and more compassion for yourself.

This program supports all types of families, including single parents, blended families, and carers managing complex behavioural or emotional needs. It’s also ideal for use in combination with resources like protective behaviours resources.
