Pediatric blood draw at home in Santa Cruz, California
A pediatric blood draw at home lets a certified phlebotomist collect your child’s labs in a calm, familiar setting instead of a busy clinic, with a parent or support person present throughout. Children’s labs often go more smoothly when the waiting-room anxiety is removed. We provide mobile phlebotomy for pediatric orders when clinically appropriate. Visits are not quick — often around 20 minutes as a reference point only, not a promise. The phlebotomist may refuse if unsafe; if the draw is unsuccessful due to complexity or safety, applicable fees may still apply per booking terms. Speedy Sticks serves Santa Cruz and surrounding California communities with flexible scheduling and lab-compliant collection.
Why families choose an at-home pediatric draw
For many children, the clinic itself is the hardest part — the waiting room, unfamiliar faces, and the rush of a busy lab. Drawing blood at home lets a child stay in a familiar, calm setting with their own comforts nearby. Parents can hold younger children, older kids can sit where they feel safe, and there is no waiting-room anxiety building before the draw. A calmer child often means a smoother, faster collection.
Caregiver coordination
We align with your clinician’s orders and preparation steps before the visit. A parent or guardian must be present throughout the collection, and your support during the draw is expected. If the draw cannot be completed due to complexity or safety, applicable fees may still apply per booking terms.
