Does 'voluntary redundancy 'sound like a crap for reason for leaving?

I took voluntary redundancy when pregnant as I wasnt intending to go back anyway and got more money this way.

Im now filling in an application form and am wondering if it looks bad.

There is only one line to give a reason for leaving last job.

What would you put?

If I get to interview stage, how should I play it?

Not sure if this is any help, but dh has taken voluntary redundancy and now is getting interviews. He's describing it as a career break which he has used to do rennovations on our house and start writing a book. Make it sound creative - a big positive, not a nice way out IYSWIM.
