Well-Child Care

Congratulations on your new baby! We are here to support you at every step along the way!

Babies are seen every couple of months for check-ups (also called Well-Child Visits) to check your child’s growth (height, weight, and head size), check vision and hearing, and ask important screening and development questions. We provide education about what you can expect from your child’s age group and how to keep your child healthy. It’s also a great time to ask questions about any concerns you may have about your child’s development, behavior, nutrition, or health. Here is the timeline of important visits, screenings, and vaccines given at each of those check-ups!

For more information about vaccines please see any of the below links or ask your child’s provider:

About the Flu Vaccine:

Santa Rosa Community Health offers flu vaccines to all eligible patients over 6 months old! Vaccination is the best protection against the flu. We have this vaccine in stock throughout the school year! This is especially important for our youngest patients, who need two doses of this vaccine before they turn 2 years old, for the best protection. After their first dose, the next will be given four weeks later. If your baby turns six months outside of the school year, their doctor will let you know when they are ready!

If you have any other questions about the flu and how to protect your baby, please speak with your child’s doctor.

Children & Teens

Starting at 3 years of age, your child will only need one check-up each year. At these visits, we will also check your child’s growth (height, weight), blood pressure, check vision and hearing, and depending on the age of your child they may receive a vaccine or extra screening where applicable.
