child growth and development assessments

In the early months your baby is regularly checked in terms of growth and development during visits to your paediatrician, midwife or baby clinic. However, after 6 months of age, these opportunities become fewer. Following enquiries and requests from clients for a continuing comprehensive programme of check ups, Annerley is now offering growth and development assessments at the ages of 7–9 months, 18 months and 2 ½ years.

We will check that your baby or child is displaying age appropriate skills, that general development is within normal limits and that you are happy with the way your child is progressing. Your child’s physical, cognitive, language, social-emotional, fine and gross motor skills will be assessed. We will also discuss your child’s nutrition and general behaviour.

These checkups are conducted in our office, with the necessary equipment to assess both gross and fine motor skills, speech development, vision and hearing.  Should any variations from the medium be detected, we are able to refer to the appropriate specialists. 

Each appointment can take up to 1.5 hour and is done in our centre in Lyndhurst Terrace.  Please try to ensure that your child has had a good sleep and is not hungry during the appointment.  We will ask the parents to answer questions and then do the actual testing with the child, in a non-threatening way and friendly environment.  Vision will be tested for the older children.

Dates and hours for the clinic are from 10am to 13 pm every other Thursday.
