The survey is looking to find out about childcare providers' approach to food and the challenges of giving children healthy, nutritious meals.
Two big topics are of particular interest - the kitchen facilities that the early years sector is working with, and how the Goverment's 30-hour pledge will affect how you provide food.
Dr Patricia Mucavele, Children's Food Trust head of nutrition, says, 'While the Government develops its plans for the 30 hours free childcare, we wnat to make sure the costs and logistics of providing food for many more children over a longer day are being factored in.'
