Nestled beside an apple orchard just west of Orleans, Heritage Child Care Centre serves 57 children from infancy through preschool age in two buildings, one a renovated National Capital Commission heritage building. Children enjoy a beautiful view from the centre windows and a peaceful, pastoral landscape in which to enjoy daily excursions.

Our hours of operation are 7:00 a.m. to 5:45 p.m., Monday to Friday.
We are open year round, excluding Statutory Holidays.

Our play spaces are designed to encourage all aspects of your child’s development. In each program room at Heritage, children can safely explore a learning environment that is designed to encourage their optimal physical and cognitive growth, appropriate to their age and level of development.

We offer a balance of structured and unstructured, stimulating and quiet-time activities and an abundance of opportunities for children’s creativity. Our expert staff design and implement age-appropriate programming that promotes self-esteem, self confidence, self-help skills and independence. We provide opportunities to strengthen social skills, for children to make choices, and gentle encouragement to children to resolve their own conflicts.

Above all, children are given the opportunity to explore who they are in a safe, healthy environment in which they are respected and admired for their individuality.

In addition to the daily outings enjoyed by all the children, they also regularly enjoy special visitors to the centre in order to enhance the fun and learning already provided by our qualified and dedicated staff.
