Ask The Paediatricians Foundation started as an online Facebook group, page and website on July 20, 2015, by Dr. Gbemisola Boyede, Consultant Paediatrician, formerly at the Lagos University Teaching Hospital, Lagos Nigeria. What started as one woman's passion to educate mothers on child health issues has now metamorphosed into a full-fledged non-governmental organization registered with the Corporate Affairs Commission of Nigeria on July 27, 2017.

Our online forum where professionals provide free health education and answers to various health questions posed by parents currently has over 740,000 members Community members on Facebook who have testified about the great impact on their children and family at large. In addition to educating parents, we also have training and seminars for medical and non-medical volunteers.

In February 2018, due to popular demand and the fact that a healthy parent is needed to ensure the health and safety of a child, a new baby called Ask The Physicians Family (ATP Family) Facebook group was added to cater for the needs of the older members of the ATP family.

We have organized and partnered with other organizations and institutions to hold several free medical outreaches in various states in Nigeria in multiple communities and schools. We have consistently supported the annual Christmas lunch for underprivileged children in Makoko, Lagos where we held our first community outreach in October 2016. We have renovated a dilapidated school building for children of Mancha at LGEA School in Kwara state amongst many other philanthropic projects.

Daily, Ask The Paediatricians Foundation is impacting the lives of thousands of children and families globally through the promotion of child health intelligence. The impact of the foundation has been recognized via many local, regional and international awards including grants from Facebook Inc. ATP has been featured on BBC and recognized by Global Giving, the largest fundraising platform for non-profits in the world.
