This survey is open to all Mumsnet users who use any kind of childcare (paid for or informal) for one or more of their children (excluding school, but including free sessions at pre school).

We know that lots of Mumsnetters find the cost and availability of childcare a real cause for concern. We also know it's an issue the government (and other parties) are interested in, so we thought it would be useful to understand your views and learn a bit more about your experiences.

We're working with the Daycare Trust on this survey - so we can get a really comprehensive picture of your views. Thank you so much for taking the time to complete the survey and as a thank you all respondents (who leave their details at the end) will be entered into a prize draw for a £50 Amazon voucher.

Thanks and good luck

Hi everyone

Thanks for all your comments - and for completing the survey. Point absolutely taken on school holidays (and pain shared) - with this survey we wanted to look at what is most 'usual' but think there would def be scope to have a longer look at holiday childcare in the future.

Good point on flex of childminder above 6 and to decide in collaboration with parents - we'll take the comments on here as comments made in the survey and I'm sure AnnMumsnet can tweak.

Again we'll take on board the point about directly funding providers rather than parents as if a survey response - I think question 9 is probably the place for this on the survey.

I think one of the reasons the survey is quite complicated is that the whole issue is so complicated and that very few people have straightforward, standard, regular childcare that never changes, so thanks for pursuing with survey when it can't adapt to every option.
