Holly Springs Pediatrics offers developmental and behavioral screening visits that help track a child’s milestones over time, welcoming families from Sanford, NC and nearby communities.

What a Developmental & Behavioral Screening Visit Feels Like

Every child grows and changes at their own pace, and it helps to have a steady place to check in on that progress. At Holly Springs Pediatrics, a developmental and behavioral screening visit starts with time, not a rush. We ask about how your child plays, talks, listens, and interacts, and we listen closely to what you’ve noticed at home.

You won’t be handed a checklist and left to fill it out alone. A member of our care team walks through the screening with you, in plain language, so the questions make sense and the visit feels like a conversation rather than a test.

If something comes up worth a closer look, we talk it through together and decide on next steps as a team. If everything looks on track, you leave with a clearer picture and one less thing to wonder about.

  • Unhurried time to talk about what you’re seeing at home
  • Plain-language explanations, not clinical jargon
  • A shared plan for next steps, decided together with you

What’s Included, and Who It’s For

Holly Springs Pediatrics offers developmental and behavioral screening as part of routine care for patients from infancy through age 22. These check-ins are built into well visits at the ages when they’re most useful, so tracking milestones becomes a normal part of your child’s care rather than a separate appointment to schedule and worry about.

Families come to us from all over the area, including many looking for developmental and behavioral screening near Sanford, NC, a community of more than 30,000 residents located about 21.7 miles from our office. We know that drive is part of the decision to become a patient here, so we try to make each visit worth the trip with a full conversation, not a rushed check-off.

A screening visit generally includes:

  • A conversation about your child’s play, communication, and daily routines
  • Age-appropriate screening tools used during well visits
  • Time to ask questions about what you’re noticing at home or school
  • A follow-up plan if your provider suggests a closer look

Because screening happens with the same practice your child already sees, there’s no separate intake or new paperwork to track down.
