Erm - the gumtree survey?

When asking for reasons why you use childcare, there seem to be lots of reasons like, 'to give me more time for myself' 'because I shouldn't have to look after my child 24/7' or 'to aid quality time'. All very nice and valid responses I am sure. But what about us rare creatures which rely on childcare so we can go out to work to help support the family? Or am I the only one who does such a silly thing?

That questionnaire seems very badly written to me. Quite odd, but then I am a SAHM so only able to complete it from the POV of a nursery place for dd1.
Some of the questions had no relevant answers and no option to fill in a different one.

I have to admitt, it made me open my eyes a bit.
I was a bit shocked at some of the reasons.
