I don't agree, particularly for a developer role. I've known developers who worked remotely specifically for this reason, that they could not afford daycare. Developers tend to be tracked more based on hours logged into a project than being in one's desk from 9-5, so the general concensus was that if they punched in their 40 hours and met deadlines, no one really cared where those 40 hours came from.
