October is Children’s Health Month!

From the newborn days to the teenage years, every stage brings something new.

Regular checkups give us a chance to look at the whole child: growth, development, sleep, nutrition, mental health and all the questions that come with growing up.

We’re honored to grow alongside your families.

Yes, your giant teenager still needs their pediatrician. 😉

There’s a LOT happening between 10 and 18.
Growth.
Sleep.
Mental health.
School.
Puberty.
Nutrition.
Relationships.

Tweens and teens are changing physically, emotionally and socially . . .often all at once.

Their yearly visit gives us a chance to check in on their health AND give them a safe place to start learning how to participate in their own healthcare.

Sleep supports learning, mood, behavior, immune function and overall health.
😴

But getting children (especially older kids and teens) to actually get enough of it can feel like a full-time job. 😜

Consistent routines, reasonable bedtimes and putting screens away before bed can help.

Not glamorous.
Still important.

Sometimes it’s movement.
Sometimes it’s daydreaming.
Sometimes it’s impulsivity.
Sometimes it’s struggling with things that seem “easy” for everyone else.

October is ADHD Awareness Month.

ADHD isn’t simply a child who “can’t sit still.” Symptoms can look different from one child to another and can change as children grow.

If you have concerns about your child’s attention, impulsivity, school performance or behavior, bring them up at your next appointment. Understanding what’s going on is an important first step toward finding the right support.

September is National Childhood Obesity Awareness Month. 💚

When we talk with children about health, the conversation should be about so much more than a number on a scale.

Regular movement.
Nourishing foods.
Quality sleep.
Hydration.
Strong family connections.

ALL help support growing bodies.
And, healthy kids come in many different shapes and sizes.

At SIP, we're here to support your child's individual health, growth, and development.

SIP will be closing early today, September 24, and will be closed tomorrow, September 25, while our team takes some time to celebrate SIP’s 5th anniversary together!

Different kids need different things: more reassurance, more independence, firmer boundaries, extra time, quieter spaces, bigger challenges, the list goes on . . .

Good parenting does not have one perfect formula. It's about learning the child in front of you and adjusting as they grow.

And yes . . . just when you think you've figured them out, they'll probably change again. 😉

Babies grow quickly . . . things that were safe just a few weeks ago can suddenly become a hazard.

This month is a great reminder to take another look at safe sleep, car seat safety, medications, furniture, cords, cabinets, and all those newly reachable spaces.

And, when you have questions about what’s appropriate for your baby's age and stage, your SIP team is always here to help.
