The Institute of Child Health (ICH) was set up by Dr K.C. Chaudhuri, the doyen of Indian pediatrics, in Kolkata in 1956. This is a trust run hospital on a no-profit ideal.

Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru, the then Prime Minister, inaugurated the institute on 16 January 1957. ICH continues to offer medical and surgical services to the ailing, and especially, the under- privileged children of the society.
