I was surprised by how low her childcare costs were.
Earning £150k with two kids in childcare you could easily be paying £4k on that, £2k on mortgage, £1k on utilities, council tax, food, etc and be left with ~ £500 a month for extras.
If you're working full time child care costs are pretty ludicrous.
There's a real issue with families leaving London because for many it is just too expensive to have kids here.
