Yes this canyon is suitable for family. The only condition is not to be afraid of heights, the highest waterfall is 18m. Note that the guide is fully handle the rope descent for children so that they can descend without stress.
But if you find that the height could be a problem for your children, choose the Ternèze canyon in the Bauges instead which will then be more suitable.
Yes, there are some jumps in this canyon where the highest is 6m. In addition, we can re-do some jumps and slides!
