Childhood Programs

Lakelands Public Health understands that every child has the opportunity to experience the world to the fullest through optimal hearing and vision health. Early intervention is key to a child's success.

By the time most children are four years old, they can communicate well with others. Helping your child develop speech and language skills is important. It can help them to make friends, learn to read, and succeed in school and life. 

As young teeth develop and oral habits form, it's essential to instill proper dental care practices early on. Dental health for children and youth focuses on creating positive experiences, oral hygiene education, and providing gentle, attentive care to set the stage for a lifetime of vibrant smiles.
