Tax Credits childcare check - but we don't qualify for childcare help!!

Just wondering if anyone has had similar...I received a letter today from HMRC saying I need to ring them as they want to make sure we're still recieving the right amount of childcare help.

I'm assuming it's just a spot check, but the thing is whilst we do get tax credits and we do pay for childcare (2 days of after school club, so minimal), we don't actually qualify for any help according to our award letter. It's stressed me out a bit as I think the amount we pay on our award is a bit off (£17 rather than £10 per week) but I didn't think we needed to tell them as it's less than £10... anyway I'm a bit confused. Have I been reading our tax award wrong? What will they ask when I ring them??
