Infant and Toddler Immunization Program

Immunization through the Lifespan

Our Infant and Toddler Immunization Program is dedicated to protecting the youngest members of your family, following guidelines set by the National Advisory Committee on Immunization (NACI) and Public Health Ontario. This program ensures your child receives timely vaccinations to prevent serious illnesses, particularly those easily spread in schools and daycare centres.

Safety and Efficacy:

  • Vaccine Safety: Vaccinations are safe and do not cause autism. Extensive research supports the safety and efficacy of vaccine ingredients.
  • Effective Immunity: Vaccinations build up your child’s immune system, teaching it to fight diseases without the risk of contracting them, ensuring long-term protection.
