Childcare Needs Survey for Parents and Carers
10 April 2023 • Sarah Medcraf
Officers from Moray Council are working in collaboration with partners across the Moray Economic Partnership to assess current childcare provision across the region. Please note our thanks if you were one of the parents who completed the previous childcare survey in 2022. This is a follow on from that work to help shape future childcare provision. The survey is intended to capture the views of all parents living or working in Moray. This survey is focussed on childcare outwith the normal funded provision occurring during the school and nursery day. This is often referred to as wraparound care and includes:
- 0-2 year olds
- 2-3 year olds
- before school/funded nursery
- after school/funded nursery
- school holidays
- weekends/evenings
We are looking to gather information which confirms the specific localities where need is most critical, as well as the types of childcare services most in demand. This work will help inform need for creation of new chargeable services. The survey is broken down into 4 sections and should take no longer than 6-8 minutes to complete.
