Who this template is for
Childcare Exit Survey is built for small teams who need a reliable intake process who need to collect the same complete information from everyone.
- Small teams who need a reliable intake process working in daycare forms.
- Teams who need to collect the same complete information from everyone without writing code or paying for a custom build.
- Anyone replacing chasing missing details over email with one structured record per enquiry.
- Respondents are the people you send it to — the form asks them 12 questions across 2 screens.
- Mobile-heavy audiences, thanks to the one-question-per-screen card layout.
Why this form is useful
It removes the cost of chasing missing details over email and turns each submission into a record your team can act on immediately.
- 8 questions are required, so submissions arrive complete instead of needing a follow-up email.
- It collects a verified email address so replies and confirmations land.
- It scores satisfaction on a consistent scale.
- Conditional logic hides 1 question until they are relevant — shorter forms convert better than long ones.
- Splitting the form across 2 pages keeps each screen short and shows respondents how much is left.
- Every response is stored, searchable and exportable, so nothing depends on one person's inbox.
