History

In 1986 a group of local childminders began meeting once a week at the Toc H community centre. Following a visit from Sue Griffin, the South West region training co-ordinator for NCMA (National Childminding Association) our local group was formed. Since then the JACC (Jersey Association of Child Carers) has grown considerably and we now have approximately 45 members, this is the majority of all Registered Childminders in Jersey at the moment.

Our Website

The original JACC website was launched in June 2007. It has grown from strength to strength and been used by more and more people. The feedback from parents using the website has been positive, with special mention being made to the personalised vacancies.

This new revised JACC website was launched in May 2021. Every association member has the opportunity to advertise their childcare services including photos, by way of a personal profile with their home marked on the google map of Jersey. This is aimed at assisting parents seeking childcare in convenient locations.

The parents’ page has information about the requirements of registration, child ratios and sample questions to ask to a potential registered childminder.
