Licensing Requirements for Family Child Care Homes and Large Child Care Homes
FOREWORD
Licensing requirements govern child care facilities in the State of Oklahoma. These rules are minimum requirements for the care and protection of children in care outside their own homes. They were developed by Oklahoma Department of Human Services (DHS) Child Care Services with input from individuals from various professions with expertise in child care, including providers; the Child Care Advisory Committee; and the public. The requirements were approved by the DHS Director and the Governor of the State of Oklahoma pursuant to the Oklahoma Administrative Procedures Act.
It is the intent of DHS that licensing requirements are clear, reasonable, fair and enforceable. In the interest of serving the public, comments are welcomed and will be considered for future revisions or development of new requirements. Please complete the form below and send it to:
