Pediatrics is the branch of medicine that involves the medical care of infants, children, and adolescents. The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends people be under pediatric care up to the age of 21. Pediatricians provide medical care to people ranging in age from newborns to young adults. They are trained to examine, diagnose, and treat children with a wide variety of injuries and illnesses through all their developmental stages, as they grow and mature. 

Having felt the calling to do more for children, Dr. Anguiano is the Founder of PLAY Awareness, Physical Literacy And Youth Awareness, which is an organization with the goal of promoting physical literacy, mindfulness, and social-emotional learning. She is also a certified Youth Physical Literacy Specialist, as well as a Yoga Calm Youth Instructor. 

Happily married with two young children, she enjoys spending time with them, creating memories while they are rapidly growing. On the weekends, they relish movie nights and popcorn while huddling on the couch.
