According to the Strange Situation, babies who use the caregiver as a secure base from which to explore the environment are classified as securely attached. Securely attached babies feel secure in their caregiver's presence and use them as a base to explore the environment, knowing that the caregiver will be available if they need support or comfort. In contrast, insecure avoidant babies avoid the caregiver and show little reaction when the caregiver leaves or returns, insecure resistant babies are clingy and upset when the caregiver leaves, and insecure disorganized babies show confused and contradictory behaviors towards the caregiver.
