The MCHAT is a simple questionnaire which helps us screen for autism and is recommended by the American Academy of Pediatrics. “MCHAT” stands for “Modified Checklist for Autism in Toddlers.” It is important for you to know that this website is in compliance with all privacy laws and that as such, the only people that have access to your information and the test results are those at Tenafly Pediatrics who are involved in your child’s medical care.

Within at least two weeks of your child’s 18-month appointment (or up to 2 years if not ever completed before), please click the following link and complete the questionnaire:

As a partner in your child’s healthcare, your input is essential in helping us to provide your child with the best care possible. We feel this is a great tool to help us reach this goal.

We, at Tenafly Pediatrics, would like to ensure your child's health and well being. In order to do so it is important that we see our patients for regular health maintenance visits. You will notice that these visits are most frequent during the first year of life. This is because your child will change more in the first year than at any other time in his or her life. During these visits we will also administer vaccines and perform bloodwork to further ensure your child's well being as well as any answer any questions you may have about your child.

The schedule for well visits is as follows:

  • For vaginal birth – few days after birth
  • For C-section – 1 week after birth
  • 2 week visit
  • 4 week visit
  • 2 month visit
  • 3 month visit
  • 4 month visit
  • 6 month visit
  • 9 month visit
  • 12 month visit
  • 15 month visit
  • 18 month visit
