Description
Winner of the Child Psychology Award for Literary Excellence
“A comprehensive roadmap for parents who want to raise securely attached, emotionally healthy children. A parenting must-read.” —Alyssa Blask Campbell, M.Ed., author of Tiny Humans, Big Emotions
Build a lifelong foundation of connection, trust, confidence, and resilience with an evidence-based approach to secure attachment.
Raising Securely Attached Kids is a practical parenting book that translates attachment science into accessible strategies for raising emotionally healthy children. Licensed therapist and attachment expert Eli Harwood shows parents and caregivers how connection-focused parenting can strengthen relationships, encourage open communication, and help children develop empathy, confidence, resilience, and the ability to form healthy relationships.
Covering every stage from newborns through adulthood, this compassionate guide helps you:
- BREAK UNHEALTHY CYCLES: Recognize patterns from your own childhood and choose a more connected way of parenting.
- BECOME A SECURE BASE: Work through attachment wounds so you can respond with greater calm, consistency, and emotional awareness.
- CHOOSE CONNECTION OVER CONTROL: Build a secure attachment relationship while maintaining clear, healthy boundaries.
- STRENGTHEN TRUST: Use practical tools and ready-to-use scripts to navigate everyday parenting challenges.
- SUPPORT EMOTIONAL HEALTH: Help children develop confidence, empathy, resilience, and strong relationship skills.
- REPAIR AND RECONNECT: Learn why mistakes do not define your relationship—and why it is never too late to create a stronger bond.
Hopeful, relatable, and grounded in attachment research, Raising Securely Attached Kids offers guidance without shame or blame. It is an essential resource for parents, caregivers, educators, and anyone who wants to nurture confident, capable, and caring kids.
Create the secure, lasting connection your child can carry into every stage of life.
