Who this list is for
This bag checklist is for a parent or guardian bringing a 12-year-old to their well child visit before starting middle school. It covers what you need for the clinic, school paperwork, and helps the preteen prepare questions or concerns they might want to discuss privately with the provider.
How to use this list
Gather the required documents first: the preteen’s health insurance card, your own photo ID, and the appointment confirmation. Add the immunization record and the middle school health form if the school requires it. Prepare a current medication list, a medication allergy list, and a list of any vitamins or supplements your child takes. Include school nurse contact information and notes on sleep routine or posture if you have concerns. Encourage your preteen to write down any questions they have for the provider. Pack a water bottle and one serving of a snack for after the visit.
What to skip
Don’t bring unnecessary toys, electronics, or bulky bags—most clinics have limited space. Avoid packing extra paperwork not related to the visit or school requirements. Leave home any medication not needed for the appointment. Skip duplicate copies of forms unless specifically requested.
