About the Incredible Directory

The Incredible Directory is a convenient and easy to use directory that inventories resources and services for parents, children, childcare providers and professionals working with families in the Ottawa area.

The Incredible Directory’s First edition was launched back in 1993 with subsequent editions released in 1995, 1999, 2003 and 2006. In 2006, we also launched the Incredible Directory Online, an online version accessible on this website.
