What is a Child Growth Percentile?

Growth percentiles compare your child’s height and weight to that of other children the same age and gender. For example, if your child's height is in the 75th percentile, it means they are taller than 75% of children their age. Pediatricians commonly use these percentiles to track whether a child is growing at a healthy rate.

How to Use This Tool

Enter your child's age, gender, height, and weight to get a result. The calculator will estimate a BMI and compare it against standard growth charts to provide a percentile. This is not a diagnostic tool but a helpful indicator for growth trends. If your child falls below the 5th percentile or above the 95th percentile, consider consulting your healthcare provider.

Why Growth Tracking Matters

Tracking your child's growth is crucial in early detection of developmental issues. A sudden drop or spike in percentiles may indicate nutritional problems or health concerns. Routine checkups should always include measuring weight and height, and this calculator is a useful way to replicate that tracking at home.
