'Jersey isn't as family-friendly as it should be'
Published: 11/10/2025

Jersey parents express concerns over lack of family-friendly policies, high childcare costs, and limited support for working families. Campaigners call for a cultural shift to prioritize families over older islanders. Challenges include high living costs, lack of affordable childcare, and limited financial support when returning to work. Government initiatives aim to improve family life, but more action is needed to address the needs of parents and children in Jersey.
