What is Growth Monitoring?

Growth monitoring is a routine, but vital part of child healthcare. It helps detect growth delays, nutritional gaps, and early signs of developmental issues – so they can be addressed before they affect your child’s overall well-being.

At Vivasvan Child Care Clinic, we provide growth assessments from infancy to adolescence, using globally accepted pediatric growth charts, bone age evaluation (if needed), and personalized guidance for parents.

Benefit Of Child Growth Monitoring

You notice it in the little things—clothes getting tighter, shoes outgrown, or maybe, not changing much at all. Growth isn’t always obvious, and that’s where we come in. We don’t expect you to have all the answers – we help you ask the right questions.

Is your child’s growth on track? Are they meeting physical milestones at the right time? Should you be concerned, or is it just a part of their unique pace?

Our job is to look beyond the surface. With experience, care, and a focus on the whole child—not just height and weight—we help you understand what’s happening, why, and what to do next. No stress, no guesswork—just clarity and support when you need it most.

Growth Monitoring Program

What's Included in Our Growth Monitoring Program?

We don’t believe in one-size-fits-all care. Every child is different—and so is their growth journey. At Vivasvan Child Care Clinic, our growth monitoring assessments typically include:

  • Height & Weight Measurement
  • BMI Evaluation (Body Mass Index)
  • Developmental Milestone Screening
  • Bone Age X-ray (if needed)
  • Nutritional & Hormonal Assessment (optional based on findings)
  • Growth Velocity Tracking (annual growth trends)

For children showing growth concerns, we provide follow-ups, personalized plans, and if needed, referrals to specialists such as pediatric endocrinologists.

Growth Milestones Chart (Average Reference Range)

Age Height (Boys) Height (Girls)
2 years 85–90 cm 84–89 cm
5 years 105–110 cm 104–109 cm
10 years 135–138 cm 134–137 cm
13 years 152–157 cm 150–155 cm
16 years 172–176 cm 162–165 cm

If your child falls significantly below the expected range or is growing less than 5–6 cm per year, it’s a sign to consult a pediatric growth specialist.

  • Your child is significantly shorter or thinner than peers
