Does your child...

• Forget homework?
• Lose everything?
• Struggle to get started?
• Have trouble staying organized?
• Feel overwhelmed by simple tasks?

These challenges are often blamed on being "lazy" or "unmotivated."

But sometimes there's something more going on.

Executive function includes the brain skills that help children plan, organize, manage time, regulate emotions, remember instructions, and complete tasks.

Difficulties with executive functioning can be associated with ADHD, anxiety, autism, learning differences, sleep concerns, nutritional issues, and other medical or developmental conditions.

If these struggles are affecting your child's daily life or school performance, it's worth having a conversation with your child's healthcare provider.

Early evaluation can help identify what's contributing to the challenges and determine what support may help your child succeed.

ADHD Is More Than “Can My Child Sit Still?” 🧠

ADHD doesn't have one simple test.

A thorough evaluation looks at the whole child.

Attention. Impulsivity. Activity level. Sleep. Anxiety. Learning. Development. School performance. Medical history. What parents see at home. What teachers see at school.

Why?

Because sleep disorders, anxiety, depression and certain learning disabilities can produce symptoms that resemble ADHD—and some conditions can occur alongside ADHD.

At GAIP, we may also consider additional laboratory or functional information when clinically appropriate as part of understanding a child's broader health picture.

But it's important to understand that neurotransmitter testing does not diagnose ADHD. ADHD remains a clinical diagnosis based on established criteria and information from multiple settings.

We don't want to simply ask:

“Does this child have ADHD?”

We also want to understand:

“What does this particular child need?”

🎨 A Little Art, A Lot of Heart at GAIP 💚

We had a special guest at GAIP! Local artist Jennifer Mehling () spent time in our office creating beautiful artwork for our patients and families to enjoy.

But we especially love the story behind her art.

Jennifer shares that during a season when she didn’t have words for everything she was experiencing, creativity became an outlet. And in her own words, art wasn’t what healed her—Jesus did. Art was simply one of the tools He used as she found restoration and learned to see beauty again.

We know many of the children and families who walk through our doors are navigating journeys of their own. Sometimes beauty, creativity, faith, and a welcoming space can bring a little encouragement along the way.

Thank you, Jennifer, for sharing your talent—and your heart—with our GAIP family. 💚🎨

Lyme Disease Can Look Different in Children. 🕷️

A tick bite isn't always noticed.

And Lyme disease doesn't always begin with the classic “bull's-eye” rash parents expect.

Early symptoms can include fever, headache, fatigue, muscle or joint aches and swollen lymph nodes, with or without a rash. CDC estimates the characteristic erythema migrans rash occurs in roughly 70–80% of infected people.

Evaluating Lyme disease involves more than checking off symptoms. A provider considers the child's symptoms, potential tick exposure, travel or geography, other possible diagnoses, and appropriate testing. Antibody testing can also be falsely negative early in infection.

At GAIP, Kimberly Steinberg, APRN, CPNP-PC, has a special interest in pediatric Lyme disease, works with families navigating these concerns, and uses advanced lab testing not usually done in a regular pediatrician's office.

If you've noticed a tick bite—or your child has unexplained symptoms following possible exposure—let's talk.

Why Meet Your Pediatrician BEFORE Baby Arrives? 🤰🏽

You don't have to wait until your baby is born to start a relationship with your pediatrician.

A prenatal pediatric visit gives expectant parents an opportunity to ask questions before the beautiful chaos begins.

We can talk about:

🍼 Feeding plans and questions
👶 What to expect during baby's first days
⚖️ Newborn weight and growth
😴 Safe sleep
🏠 GAIP's newborn house-call option
🩺 What happens during early pediatric visits
💚 Any concerns specific to your family

It's also your opportunity to ask us questions and decide whether GAIP feels like the right pediatric home for your baby and even your other children.

Preparing for a baby means choosing the people you want on your team.

We'd love to meet you before your little one arrives.

Dads, We Haven’t Forgotten You.

When a new baby arrives, a lot of attention naturally goes to baby and mom. But becoming a dad is a big transition, too.

You may be learning how to soothe a crying newborn, running on very little sleep, supporting your partner, figuring out feeding schedules—and wondering if you're doing any of it right.

You are an important part of your baby's care.

At GAIP, our newborn visits are a place for dads to ask questions, learn, and feel more confident caring for their new baby, too.

👶 How do I soothe the baby?
🍼 How can I help with feeding?
😴 Is this sleep pattern normal?
💩 Are these diapers normal?
❤️ How can I best support Mom?
🤔 What should I be watching for?

There are no “mom-only” questions when it comes to caring for your newborn.

And during our Newborn House Calls, we have time to talk with the family—not just examine the baby.

💚 Dads, you're part of this story, too.

GAIP Newborn House Calls are available from birth through 2 months old.

We're Checking on Baby. But Mom… How Are YOU Doing? 💚

Newborn visits naturally focus on the baby.

Is baby feeding? Growing? Sleeping? Having enough wet diapers?

But there's another person in the room who matters, too:

Mom.

How are you recovering?
Are you sleeping at all?
How is feeding going for YOU?
Do you have support?
Are you overwhelmed, anxious, or feeling unlike yourself?

Your baby's pediatrician doesn't replace your OB/GYN or your own healthcare provider—but we can notice, listen, encourage, and help connect you with support when something doesn't seem right.

Caring for a newborn means caring about the family surrounding that baby, too.

At GAIP, our newborn house calls give families time to ask questions, settle in, and be heard. 💚 Baby matters. And Mom matters, too.

Dads, we have not forgotten you!
