School Age

At this age children are usually a lot more independent and capable of more self-care

They still need the support of their parents. This looks a little different though as parents support school projects, after school activities and sports events. Figuring out how to relate to the school age child is typically fairly easy at this stage. Some of the challenges that arise may be related to school performance, relating to peers and sometimes even early signs of anxiety and mood disorders.

Injuries are more common than illnesses at this age. Pure Joy Pediatrics is here to support young athletes and students alike to help them continue to be healthy and injury free. Please make sure to fill out all necessary forms before your appointment.
