Upcoming Family Events
The Family Study Center’s Infant Family Center welcomes you to come join our next CIRCLE OF SECURITY (COS) COURSE. COS is an 8-week course that meets for just 1 hour per week (COS is FREE to parents of infants and young children!)
All parents sometimes feel lost and clueless about what our children most want from us. But there are ways to improve at recognizing and making sense of what children are really asking us for. The Circle of Security® Parenting™ program is highly regarded by parents. It is based on decades of research about how secure parent-child relationships can be supported and strengthened. All Pinellas County adults who are parenting or coparenting babies and young children are encouraged to sign up to join us for these lively and helpful group meetings!
To join the next COS Group: Please contact Marilyn Landrau, the Infant-Family Center’s Practice Manager at: 727-873-4876
