Pediatrics in Prague 6: Spring Vaccination and Prevention for Children

With the first signs of spring comes the season of school trips, family outings, and summer holiday planning. This is the ideal time to think about your child’s health protection. At our pediatrics clinic in Prague 6, prevention and timely vaccination are among the most effective ways to reduce health risks that could disrupt your family plans.

At MY CLINIC, we provide pediatric care with an individual approach and enough time for every child and parent. Under the care of experienced pediatrician MUDr. Jitka Činátlová, we prepare a personalized vaccination plan based on your child’s age, health condition, and upcoming travel or seasonal activities.

Tick-Borne Encephalitis Vaccination: Do Not Wait Until Summer

Ticks become active when temperatures rise above 5 °C, and the Czech Republic remains one of the countries with a high incidence of tick-borne encephalitis.

Why vaccinate in spring?
To build reliable protection, two doses are usually needed, given 1 to 3 months apart.

Get ahead of the season
If you start in spring, your child can be fully protected before the peak summer tick season begins.

Accelerated vaccination schedule
For children starting later, we also offer an accelerated vaccination schedule.

“At MY CLINIC Pediatrics, we believe vaccination is one of the key pillars of prevention. In children, not only the right timing but also a sensitive approach matters, so that a visit to the doctor does not become a source of stress,” says MUDr. Jitka Činátlová, Head of Pediatrics at MY CLINIC.

Current Seasonal Risks: Whooping Cough and Measles

Spring often brings a higher spread of respiratory infections among children in schools, nurseries, and activity groups. Because immunity may weaken over time, spring is a good opportunity to review your child’s vaccination status and check whether any booster doses are needed, especially around 5 and 10 years of age.

During a spring consultation at MY CLINIC, we can review whether your child has received all routine vaccinations according to the current Czech vaccination schedule, including the MMR vaccine against measles and combination vaccines such as Infanrix Hexa.

Safe Travel to Summer Camps and Seaside Holidays

Whether you are planning a summer camp, a school trip, or a family holiday abroad, hepatitis A can be a relevant risk. While hepatitis B is part of the routine vaccination schedule, protection against hepatitis A may be a useful additional step in many travel and group settings.

During your spring consultation at MY CLINIC, we will discuss:


  • Routine vaccination review – to check whether your child’s vaccination schedule is complete

  • Individual risk factors – based on your child’s health, planned travel, and summer activities

  • Additional vaccinations – including protection against meningococcal disease, pneumococcal infections, rotavirus, and HPV
