Developmental & Behavioral Screening at Holly Springs Pediatrics
Developmental & behavioral screening is a scheduled visit where our providers use age-appropriate tools to check how a child is growing, communicating, and interacting compared to typical milestones. Holly Springs Pediatrics offers this service for infants, children, and adolescents from birth through age 22.
These screenings are a routine part of pediatric care, not a diagnosis or a treatment plan. They give parents and providers a shared, structured way to look at development over time and decide together what, if anything, comes next.
We welcome families from Chapel Hill, NC, home to nearly 58,919 residents, and from surrounding communities. Our office is about 17.5 miles from Chapel Hill, a manageable drive for a scheduled visit.
- Screenings offered across the full birth-through-22 age range
- Age-based tools used at each visit

What to Expect at Your Screening Visit
Every screening visit follows the same basic structure, so families know what to expect before they arrive.
- Check-in: Front desk staff confirm your child’s age and reason for the visit and note any specific concerns you want to discuss.
- Screening tool: Your provider uses an age-appropriate questionnaire or observation tool suited to your child’s current age.
- Conversation: Your provider reviews the results with you, answers your questions, and explains what the results do and do not mean.
- Next steps: If follow-up makes sense, your provider explains the options and helps you decide on a plan together.
Visits are scheduled with enough time to go through the screening and talk, so you are not rushed through a checklist.
If you have specific questions about your child’s development, bring them to the visit. Our providers can talk through what you’re noticing and take it from there.
