Growth & Development

Every child grows at their own pace, and tracking your child's growth & development is one of the most important parts of pediatric care. At each well child visit, our pediatricians check your child's height, weight, and head growth and review key milestones in movement, speech, learning, and social skills. We also provide developmental screenings so possible concerns, such as speech delays or signs of autism, can be caught early, when support makes the biggest difference.

Are You Expecting?

Congratulations on your growing family! Choosing a pediatrician is one of the most important decisions you'll make before your baby arrives, and we'd be honored to be part of your journey. At Sacoto Pediatrics, we welcome expectant parents who want to learn more about our practice, our approach to care, and how we support newborns from the very first days. After your baby is born, we'll help you with feeding, sleep, growth, and all the questions that come with being a new parent.

Parent Resources

Parenting comes with plenty of questions, and we want you to have reliable answers whenever you need them. Our website offers a range of helpful tools, including the Is Your Child Sick?® symptom checker, medicine dosage charts, and a "What's Going Around?" page that tracks illnesses in our community. Our online Medical Library covers topics such as behavior, growth and development, nutrition, newborn care, safety, special needs, and teen health.
