In pediatric practice, the age range typically spans from birth through late adolescence to support transition into adulthood. In many pediatric and school-based settings, services are provided up to 21 years old, aligning with educational laws that allow supports through age 21 and the need to bridge to adult services. This means infancy, childhood, and the teen years are all included, covering the period where children often transition from pediatric to adult care.

That’s why the 0-21 years range is the best fit. The other ranges omit important stages: ending at 18 misses the late adolescence and transition years, ending at 14 excludes the full teen period, and starting at 2 excludes infancy.
