Child growth percentiles
Check how your child compares with WHO growth curves (0-6 years) for weight, height or head circumference. We add a projected line if they remain on the same percentile.

Growth percentiles guide
Percentiles show how a measurement (weight, height, head circumference) compares to the WHO reference population. They are used to track child development.
Interpretation
- 50th Percentile: This is the median; half of healthy children are above and half are below.
- Normal ranges: Usually, falling between the 3rd and 97th percentiles is considered normal, provided growth is consistent.
How it is calculated
We use the World Health Organization (WHO) standardized tables and formulas for children aged 0-5 and 5-19 years.
