JPS Advisers was founded in 2014 by Jodie Signorino. With extensive industry experience behind her in management and governance, she established and worked with a FDC advisory group to identify the strengths, needs, risks, characteristics and, of course, potential growth and development of family day care services.

Through this process, Jodie realised family day care providers and educators were lacking advice and support to help them start and build a compliant and successful business. As a result, she established JPS Advisers to offer coaching, training, support, advice, advocacy and contextualised resources and training to family day care businesses.

JPS Advisers are committed to quality early childhood experiences and we believe fdc to be the ultimate blend for children and their families. We are passionate, experienced and well resourced to meet ‘any‘ need you have in your family day care service. JPS Advisers work with Approved Providers and Nominated Supervisors to implement robust governance strategies tailored to each service and we work with educators to build their home business and educational program to make them stand out in this now competitive field.

What We Know:

  • We know many providers are new to education and care service management
  • We know over 70% of services are not complying with the National Quality Framework
  • We know family day care operates in tight-knit communities
  • We know legal liability lies with the approved provider
  • We know educators are the service’s biggest asset, AND RISK!
  • We know sub-standard training is delivered by some RTOs
  • We know in many cases it’s the documentation letting services down

But what we know most: children in family day care are well cared for and loved!
