A local children's store is closing its doors for good after serving Ottawa kids for more than three quarters of a century.
Kiddytown announced its closure through a Facebook post, citing retirement as the reason.
“It is with heavy hearts after 76 years of serving the Ottawa area that Kiddytown has decided to close down a pillar of the Ottawa community. It has been our utmost pleasure to serve each and every one of you over all the years,” the post read.
The post goes on to say the store will stay open until the end of February 2022, and customers are invited to stop in to say goodbye.
The family-owned business, which focuses on baby and children's retail products, first opened in 1945.
