## Why choose Sutter?

Childhood is an amazing time of rapid growth and learning — and not just for kids. Our goal is to help your whole family navigate the healthcare highs and lows of growing children. At Sutter, you’ll find providers you can trust with your kids’ needs, from tracking developmental milestones to treating respiratory infections.

Our pediatricians focus on preventive care and treatment for babies, children and teens. From the moment your baby is born, our pediatricians are on hand to watch over your little one. Babies change and grow quickly in year 1 and need checkups and vaccinations at regular intervals. We help guide parents through the first year and set you up for success as your child grows up.

Through their toddler, childhood and teen years, we provide well-child checkups, vaccinations, care for injuries and disease management. We’re here for every stage and every bump, from toddler toilet training to little league sports injuries. Our specialists understand the changing needs of preteens and adolescents, offering screenings for behavioral health concerns common in this age group. They’re also here to have open, honest conversations with teens about health and social concerns.

We’re always here to support your child with extended office hours, Sutter Children's Urgent Care and same-day appointments. Connecting with your child’s care team is easy with secure messaging and appointment scheduling through [My Health Online](https://www.sutterhealth.org/patient-resources/my-health-online?sc_site=SutterHealth&sc_lang=en).
