Watching Your Child Grow: Developmental Screenings for Durham, NC Families

Holly Springs Pediatrics offers developmental and behavioral screenings that help families from Durham, NC track their child’s milestones at each well visit, in an unhurried, judgment-free appointment.

A Different Kind of Well-Visit Conversation

Some pediatric visits rush the developmental conversation into the last two minutes, if it happens at all. At Holly Springs Pediatrics, developmental and behavioral screening is built into the visit itself, not squeezed in at the end.

Parents get real time to talk through what they are noticing, whether it is speech, movement, social skills, or behavior at home and school.

We use age-appropriate screening tools designed to track milestones over time, not a single snapshot, so the conversation continues from one well visit to the next.

• Unhurried time to discuss your child’s development
• Screenings matched to your child’s age and stage
• A consistent record that follows your child from infancy through the teen years

Families from Durham, NC are welcome here, and many make the short drive because they want that kind of steady, ongoing attention.

What to Expect at a Screening Visit

A developmental and behavioral screening at Holly Springs Pediatrics usually happens alongside a regular well-child appointment, though it can also be scheduled on its own if a family has specific questions.

Before or during the visit, a parent or caregiver typically completes a short, age-based questionnaire about the child’s skills and behavior. Older children and teens may answer some questions directly.

The provider reviews the results with you in plain language, right there in the room, and talks through any next steps together, at your pace.

• A short questionnaire suited to your child’s age
• A conversation with your child’s provider about the results
• Clear next steps, explained without jargon

There is no need to prepare anything special. Just bring your questions and your observations from home, school, or daycare.
