🧸 Building Secure Attachment Through Play - with Clinical Psychologist Dr Sanchita Chowdhury #parenting #childdevelopment #attachment
This video explores how learning through play supports children’s emotional development and helps build secure attachment. While playtime naturally changes depending on a child’s age and stage of development, there are no strict rules about how or what to play — connection, presence, and attunement matter most.
In this video, Dr Sanchita Chowdhury explains how play creates opportunities to strengthen attachment by tuning in to a child’s wants and needs. Through shared play, parents and carers can gently coach skills such as emotional understanding, social interaction, and perseverance — not by teaching, but by naming experiences and emotions in age-appropriate ways. Giving a child undivided attention during play helps them feel valued, listened to, and more likely to open up during times of challenge.
Dr Sanchita Chowdhury is a clinical psychologist with expertise in child development, attachment, and family relationships. Her work focuses on supporting parents and carers to build trusting, secure relationships with their children, helping young people feel emotionally safe, understood, and confident in expressing both positive and difficult feelings.
This video highlights how secure attachment is built gradually over time through consistency, attention, and meaningful connection.
