“THE RIGHT CHOICE FOR CHILDREN”

Who we are

Jig-so Children’s Centre is a charity offering support and a safe play environment for children, parents and carers. We enable inclusion within our community by providing access to events, support networks and organisations. We aim to promote the family unit via parenting courses. We raise awareness and participation and build self-esteem via accredited and non accredited courses.

What we do

Jig-so facilitates learning through play, offering safe play sessions for children aged 0-14 from our centre here in Cardigan, and from different venues across South Ceredigion, West Carmarthenshire and North Pembrokeshire. We offer support and advice on parenting in all areas of development. Our current timetable can be found below.
