Pediatric Primary Care

Nemours offers pediatric primary care at Nemours Pediatrics.

Not every child needs specialty medical care, but all children need special care — the kind you get from the experienced, compassionate primary care pediatricians and advance practice nurses (APN) at Nemours. Our pediatric care network consists of Nemours primary care offices and private practices affiliated with our Children’s Health Alliance (CHA) who share our commitment to family-centered care.

From routine check-ups to sick visits for newborns to teens, we’re here for all of your primary care needs.

  • within the first 2 weeks after birth
  • 1 month
  • 2 months

At each visit, we’ll check your child’s growth, development, overall health, and give any recommended routine immunizations.

The team at Pediatric & Adolescent Medicine of Seminole, in association with Nemours, takes a whole-child approach to pediatric primary care, focusing on wellness and prevention. We promote healthy living and emotional well-being for kids at every age and stage. Think of us as your child’s “medical home,” here for you through all of those important growth and development milestones, and partnering with you to help your child grow up healthy.

  • developmental milestones (when you can expect your child to crawl, walk, talk, run, hop, throw a ball)
  • behavior (dealing with tantrums, timeouts, positive parenting, etc.)
  • nutrition (breastfeeding advice, feeding finicky eaters, ensuring a healthy diet in older kids, etc.)
