JSA after Maternity Leave

I'm just wondering what my entitlement to contribution based JSA might be.
Last year I started working part time, whilst looking for a full-time job. I then found out I was pregnant and continued working part-time until I started my maternity leave. I claimed Maternity Allowance (MA) whilst on maternity leave which has now come to an end. I had planned on returning to my part-time job until I found alternative full-time work, however my boss has now said there is not enough work so I will be redundant.
Given that during the past 18 months I have either been earning a low amount (rarely needing to pay NIC) or claiming MA is this likely to stop any entitlement to JSA?
Hope someone can help, thanks.
