1934

The Boshi Aiiku Kai (Mother and Child Health Care) Foundation was established on March 13, 1934, based on an Imperial decree issued by Emperor Shōwa following the birth of the current Emperor Emeritus on December 23, 1933.

At the time of its founding, Japan was facing severe economic depression and numerous social challenges. There was no Ministry of Health and Welfare (now the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare) or public health centers, and maternal and child healthcare was largely overlooked. To fulfill its founding mission, the Aiiku Foundation established the Aiiku Research Committee in May 1934, bringing together leading experts from various fields to conduct scientific research relevant to societal needs.

To further develop this work, the Aiiku Research Institute in November 1938 to conduct comprehensive research on child and maternal care and education.

The following month, the Aiiku Medical Clinic (Pediatrics) opened as its clinical department.

1940

While initially focused solely on pediatrics, Obstetrics was added in December 1940, achieving the institution's original mission of "providing medical care for children and expectant mothers, along with childbirth support and infant care services".

Under the regulation of the Medical Care Act in 1949, the institution was renamed "Aiiku Hospital."
