This is a reflexive essay on the potential use of Jean Watson's Theory of Transpersonal Caring in the delivery of child-oriented nursing home care, in the light of the 10 elements of the Clinical Caritas Process. This theoretical background permits the development of transpersonal home care to children, the moment when nurses need to develop self-knowledge, have theoretical-philosophical support, and use this knowledge to overcome the paradigm of objectivity and biological care.
