Supporting Early Attachments Bundle

How we bond in the earliest years shapes how we see the world forever.

The Supporting Early Attachments Guide explains the profound impact of the caregiver-child relationship on the developing brain - and why the bond you build matters for life.

Written by the allied health team at Out of the Box Therapies, this evidence-based guide brings together Attachment Theory and the latest neuroscience in plain, easy-to-understand language. You'll learn about the four attachment styles, the science of oxytocin and mirror neurons, and how early interactions create the "blueprint" for emotional health, resilience and future relationships.

It also offers practical, compassionate guidance for co-regulation, attunement and emotional literacy - and reassurance that it's never too late to strengthen a connection, even after challenges like illness or trauma. Grounded in the work of leading experts and packed with a full bibliography, this guide turns the science of bonding into simple everyday actions using touch, song and play.

Perfect for:

• Parents and carers
• Early childhood educators
• Child health nurses
• Support workers
• Grandparents
• Anyone caring for a newborn or infant

Five science-backed bonding activities - gentle touch, songs, peek-a-boo and sensory play - to soothe, engage and build secure attachment.
