Nemours KidsHealth Celebrates 30 Years!

Nemours KidsHealth® (KidsHealth.org) is thrilled to mark a major milestone – its 30th anniversary! Founded on September 1, 1995, by visionary Dr. Neil Izenberg, a renowned (and recently retired) pediatrician from Nemours Children’s Health, KidsHealth® was created to be a trusted resource of health information for families. Over the years, it has grown to become the authority for many, with some of the earliest users now relying on KidsHealth as parents themselves.

A Pioneer in Children's Health Online 

KidsHealth was among the internet's first health websites and the very first dedicated to children's health and parenting. Today — and 6.4 billion visits later — it is widely regarded as the largest and most trusted source for pediatric content globally.

KidsHealth Homepage Through the Years

Trusted Source of Health Information

For 30 years, KidsHealth has been delivering unbiased, doctor-approved, and easily understandable content to families worldwide. It remains the go-to site for parents, kids, and teens seeking reliable information on children's health, behavior, and development.

Impact Beyond Our Walls

KidsHealth is created by experts at Nemours Children’s Health who are dedicated to the well-being of children. But our reach goes beyond our hospital system with licensing to more than 250 children's hospitals, health systems, and organizations. This enables these organizations to offer our trusted health education to their communities under their own brand.

Thank You

To the more than 300 Nemours Children’s Health clinicians who serve as the medical experts on thousands of articles, animations, videos, care instructions, and other educational resources for families, thank you. We could not do all this without you. 

And lastly, to the parents, caregivers, teens, kids, educators, and clinicians who have turned to KidsHealth for answers and advice, thanks for taking the journey with us. 

Here's to many more years of providing you with trusted health information!
