2022(Autumn H., supra, 27 Cal.App.4th at pp. 575–576.) In making that determination, the court is to consider factors such as “the age of the child, the portion of the child’s life spent in the parent’s custody, the ‘positive’ or ‘negative’ effect of interaction between parent and child, and the child’s particular needs.” (Id. at p. 576.) Although Caden C . was decided after the juvenile court’s ruling, it affirmed these factors are appropriately considered in evaluating the second element of the parental-benefit exception.

Here, the juvenile court properly considered H.E.’s age when she was removed from Mother’s care and the amount of time she spent having her daily needs met by others because “[a] ‘significant attachment from child to parent results from the adult’s attention to the child’s needs for physical care, nourishment, comfort, affection and stimulation.’ ” (In re B.D., supra, 66 Cal.App.5th at p. 1230, quoting Autumn H., supra, 27 Cal.App.4th at p. 575 .)
