Unlocking the Power of the 4 S’s for Secure Attachment

The 4 S’s—Safe, Seen, Soothed, and Secure—are the foundation of strong parent-child bonds. I remember a moment when my daughter came home upset after a tough day at school. Instead of rushing to fix things, I focused on making her feel safe and truly seen by listening without judgment. I soothed her with a gentle hug and reassuring words, letting her know she was not alone. Over time, these small moments have helped her feel secure, knowing she can always count on me. Building secure attachment isn’t about being perfect—it’s about being present. How do you practice the 4 S’s in your family?
