Maternity and child health clinic services (Neuvola)

Neuvola is a health care service where expectant mothers and families receive guidance, counselling and support. Child health clinics monitor and assess a child’s growth and development from birth until the age of 6 years. During regular visits, your child’s development is followed, and a doctor also conducts age‑appropriate health check‑ups.
At the clinic, children receive, among other things, vaccinations that protect them from infectious diseases throughout their lives. Municipalities and many organisations support families with children through a variety of services. Information about these services is provided at the clinic when needed.
When you move to Seinäjoki, please contact the child health clinic so that an appointment can be scheduled for your child.
