Description

This specification seeks to procure Circle of Security Parenting (COS-P) training to be delivered to suitable practitioners working in specialist perinatal mental health services and maternal mental health services across all seven regions in England. COS-P is a parenting programme for parents and caregivers of children between the ages of 4 months and 6 years. It is a targeted-selective programme delivered in a variety of health care settings and aims to improve children's attachment. The Programme is based on 60 years of attachment theory and research about how parent/child relationships can be supported and strengthened; it makes attachment theory accessible and applicable to parents. (Attachment theory provides a framework for understanding children's fundamental relational needs and our responses to those needs as caregivers.)
