Welcome to the
National Council for Children
The NCC is committed to promote professional and effective interventions for the protection and safety of children so that they can realize their full potential in a society, which respects their rights and dignity, as laid down in the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC), which has been ratified by the Government of Seychelles.
Foreword from the CEO Mrs. Yasmin Umarji

As we mark a remarkable milestone – 45 years of championing the safety, rights and well-being of children in Seychelles – it is both an honor and a privilege to welcome you to the official website of the National Council for Children (NCC).
Since its inception, NCC has stood as a steadfast advocate for every child’s right to safety, care, education, and the opportunity to thrive. For over four decades, we have worked hand in hand with communities, families, professionals, and partners to protect and uplift the voices of our nation’s youngest citizens.
This website is more than just a platform – it is a window into our work, a space for engagement, and a resource for parents, caregivers, children, and all those committed to creating a more compassionate and child-friendly Seychelles.
As we celebrate our 45th anniversary, we pay tribute to the visionaries, staff members, volunteers, and children who have shaped our journey. We reaffirm our commitment to evolving and innovating, ensuring that our services remain relevant, accessible, and impactful in the lives of children.
Thank you for visiting our page. We invite you to explore, learn, and join us as we continue to build a brighter future – one where every child feels safe, valued, and heard.
