Well child visits are the backbone of pediatric care. These include regular checkups that track your child's growth, catch problems early, and keep vaccines on schedule. We follow the Bright Futures visit schedule from a baby's first days through age 19, checking weight, height, developmental milestones, vision, and hearing at every stage. Beyond the exam itself, these visits are your chance to ask questions — whether that's about starting solids at four months, screen time at ten, or a driver's permit at sixteen. We recommend scheduling about three months ahead so your child sees the same familiar provider each time.

Beyond routine and sick visits, our team offers additional pediatric services for families with more specific needs — including ADHD and ADD evaluations, asthma and allergy management, behavioral health support for anxiety and inattention, chronic care management for children with ongoing conditions, sports physicals, newborn care starting in the hospital, and coordinated specialist referrals. If your child's needs go beyond a standard checkup, chances are we already have a plan for it.

Breastfeeding is a learning process for both parent and baby, and it's one more way we support pediatric care for families in Windsor, Bloomfield and surrounding communities. We provide hands-on, in-office feeding evaluations along with phone support for questions on latching, positioning, pumping, milk storage, and returning to work — as well as breastfeeding through more complex situations like prematurity, slow weight gain, or a medical condition. Whatever your feeding goals look like, we're here to help you reach them.
