Happy 2024! To start the year off right, we have teamed up with American Academy of Pediatrics, CA Chapter 3 (AAP-CA3) Healthy Development Services to offer tips for getting little ones back-on-track with their health:
- Call your pediatrician: Staying on track with well-child visits allows pediatricians to make sure our little ones are staying healthy, reaching milestones, and can offer resources and referrals if necessary.
- Track milestones: In the first 3 years of life, a baby’s brain grows to about 80% of adult size, reaching 90% by age 5. Keep track of their milestones at https://aapca3.org/hds/parents/resources/
- Catch up on vaccines: Many kids missed out on routine vaccines during the pandemic. Immunizations have the power to help protect them against serious diseases like measles, whooping cough, polio and more. Find your vaccinations schedule at: https://www.aap.org/en/patient-care/immunizations/
