Schedule your child's COVID-19 vaccine
Children 5 and older are now eligible to receive the COVID-19 vaccine.
The Pfizer low-dose COVID-19 vaccine has received Emergency Use Authorization from the FDA for children ages 5 to 11. This is an extraordinary moment in our fight against COVID-19 and will provide important protection for the 28 million children across the US in this age range!
Children’s Hospital New Orleans will be administering the low dose Pfizer vaccine in our pediatrics clinics across the community, with Monday – Saturday appointments available.
How do I schedule my child's vaccine appointment? It's easy!
Existing pediatrics patients:
- Call your Children's Hospital pediatrician's office directly to schedule an appointment, or
- Schedule a vaccine through our patient portal.
Don't have a Children's Hospital pediatrician?
- Find time from the options below and schedule your appointment online. Community appointments are available every Saturday at Children's Hospital.
- Or call 504.320.2985 to schedule an appointment (calls are answered between 8 am - 5 pm, Monday - Friday).
For a person younger than age 18 in Louisiana, verbal or signed parental consent is needed to be vaccinated. If parents or guardians cannot be present in-person they may send a signed consent form with their child.
