According the NSW Health Blue Book, it is recommended that children have a general check-up at the following times:
1-4 weeks old
6-8 weeks old + vaccinations
4 months old + vaccinations
6 months old + vaccinations
12 months old + vaccinations
18 months old + vaccinations
2 years old
3 years old
4 years old + vaccinations
These are general check-ups to make sure that your child is developing as expected and meeting their milestones. If you have any concerns, they can also be checked at any additional time. These regular check-ups help to pick up subtle changes that might otherwise be missed, and mean that your child has the opportunity for early intervention if there are any problems.
