Windows for Children cares for children aged between five years and ten years upon admission with significant emotional and behavioural difficulties. We provide a safe, nurturing and stable environment to children who have suffered significant harm in their formative years. We recognise the children we care for are individuals, who have their own personalities, experiences, needs and risks. Windows for Children works with and cares for children who display insecure attachment behaviours, and typically have a Disorganized Attachment style. We commonly support and care for children who have experienced many changes in caregiver, and have become developmentally “frozen” as a result of their traumatic and harmful early life experiences.It is well known and founded that Disorganised Attachment behaviour in childhood is correlated with later behavioural and psychosocial difficulties including dissociative behaviour, controlling, externalising or aggressive behaviour, conduct and attention disorders and mental ill-health . Upon arrival at Windows for Children, children typically exhibit many of these behaviours and characteristics, have sensory processing difficulties, and have great difficulty regulating their own emotions and behaviours.
