Before resorting to medications, if a 6-year-old (or anyone really) has heartburn, more formally known as gastroesophageal reflux disease, lifestyle modifications such as eating smaller meals and sitting up for an hour after eating each meal should be tried first. It is very important to get heartburn under control and if these dietary and lifestyle changes are not enough to fix the problem, you should consult your child's pediatrician.
