The Yangon Children's Hospital (YCH) (Burmese: ရန်ကုန် ကလေး ဆေးရုံ) is a major public hospital in Yangon, Myanmar. The YCH was established in 1960 under the Yangon General Hospital with a capacity of 60 beds. In 1962-1963, the hospital moved to Myenigon with the capacity of 80 beds. In 1963, the hospital moved again to current 8.73-acre (3.53 ha) compound. The current main building was built in 1970 with Canadian aid, and opened in September 1978. Since then, a new three-story annex building with 550 beds has been added.
