Christofoor - Healthy attachment

Healthy attachment is about the connection a (young) child makes with themselves and the world. Forming a connection with one's own body is the basis for a child to be able to form a relationship with themselves, their parent(s), other caregivers such as the toddler teacher, school teacher, high school teacher, friends, animals, plants - in short, the world. In working with children, teachers, parents, caregivers, and contemporaries, Loïs Eijgenraam has encountered the topic of 'attachment' in many aspects. Both healthy attachment and insecure attachment that has caused wounds. This book is about the process of attachment and being healthily attached. It offers caregivers and other interested parties insight into how the attachment process unfolds, what conditions are necessary for attachment to occur, and how the caregiver can contribute to this process. Background information and practical tips are provided on how to work on attachment in one's own (self-)upbringing. The information is supported with practical examples.
