Terms of Endearment for Children

You can use these terms to help a child feel more safe and loved while visiting the clinic.  You don't have to know them to use these terms.  It is like calling a child kiddo, sweetie, or honey.  Practice on your own children or loved one.  It feels nice to be nice.

For girls, here are some...
Hola...
chula
bella
guapa
princesa
m'ija
cariña

For either a boy or girl...
Hola mi...amor, cielo...corazon
tesoro

For boys, here are some...
Hola ...
chulo
guapo
m'ijo
cariño
