Routine healthy child development reviews will be offered to all children and their carers. These take place at Antenatal, Birth to 14 days, 6 to 8 weeks, 1 year and 2 to 2.5 years.

We send information to parents and carers on our services at year 1 and year 7. We also carry out a review via a digital health questionnaire at year 9.

Appointments may be offered in community venues, schools or at home.

You can learn more about these reviews in the videos on this page.
