Track Your Child's Growth — Height & Weight Over Time

Watching your child grow is one of the joys of parenthood. KidCare Tracker makes it easy to log height and weight measurements, see a chart of growth over time, and come prepared to every pediatric well-child visit.

Why track your child's growth?

Growth is one of the most important indicators of a child's overall health. Consistent tracking helps parents and pediatricians spot trends early — whether a child is growing steadily, experiencing a growth spurt, or deviating from their own growth curve in a way that might need medical attention.

Most parents rely on well-child visit records, but those happen infrequently. Logging measurements between visits gives you a richer picture of how your child is developing over months and years.

How to use KidCare Tracker to track your child's growth

Open your child's profile in KidCare Tracker and navigate to the growth section. Enter the date, height (in cm or inches), and weight (in kg or lbs). The app saves each entry and displays them all in a chronological chart.

You can add measurements taken at home — such as from a wall chart or bathroom scales — as well as measurements recorded by your child's doctor during visits. Having both in one place gives the most complete growth history.

When you have a well-child visit coming up, use the PDF export feature to share your child's full growth history with the pediatrician. This saves time during the appointment and can prompt useful conversations about your child's development.

Child growth tracking FAQ

How do I track my child's growth at home?

In KidCare Tracker, you can log your child's height and weight whenever you measure them — whether at home or at a doctor's visit. The app stores each entry with a date and builds a growth chart over time.

How often should I measure my child's height and weight?

Your child's pediatrician will measure height and weight at well-child visits. You can also measure at home whenever you're curious. Logging measurements every few months gives you a useful trend over time.

What is a normal growth rate for children?

Growth rates vary widely between children and depend on age, genetics, and overall health. Your child's pediatrician uses standardised growth charts to assess whether your child is growing within a healthy range. KidCare Tracker helps you record measurements to bring to those appointments.

Can I track growth for multiple children in KidCare Tracker?

Yes. KidCare Tracker supports multiple child profiles within one account. Each child has their own separate growth timeline, so you can track all your children's height and weight in one place.

Can I share my child's growth record with a doctor?

Yes. KidCare Tracker lets you export a PDF health report that includes growth measurements alongside other health data. You can share this with your pediatrician or specialist before or during an appointment.
