Ensure Regular Check-Ups Regular pediatric check-ups allow for early detection and treatment of potential health issues. These visits often include growth assessments, developmental screenings, and preventive care advice.
Promote Healthy Lifestyles Parents should model healthy behaviors, such as eating nutritious foods, staying physically active, and avoiding harmful habits like smoking or excessive screen time.
Maintain a Safe Environment Creating a safe home environment can prevent injuries and accidents. This includes childproofing the home, using car seats properly, and supervising children during activities.
