Sunday Telegraph 20 July

 Record numbers of mothers are going back to work, experts claim, driving a boom for Britain's nursery schools. A comprehensive new report shows more than half of women are now in employment, up by more than 10 per cent in a generation.Experts believe many of these female workers are older mothers who delayed having children until they had forged a career and who are returning to their jobs soon after giving birth.They are thought to be behind an 8 per cent growth in the UK's day nursery market, up from 5 per cent the previous year.Sun Tel
