Questions

Questions

How many Tahlequah daycares take infants?

25 Tahlequah daycares take infants, by the Oklahoma record or their own description. A daycare without this tag may still take infants, so ask.

What does a safe-sleep citation mean?

It means a state inspector found a sleep rule not met on a visit, for example a baby put down on their side, a crib with blankets or toys, or babies left without a check. Since October 2023, 16% of visited Oklahoma infant programs had one cited. Open a listing to read its visits, and ask the daycare what it changed.

How young a baby do daycares in Tahlequah take?

From birth or age 0 on the state record: all 24 daycares in Tahlequah whose record gives a starting age list it that way. A daycare's own minimum can be older than its license allows, so ask.

Is there newborn daycare in Tahlequah?

Yes. 24 daycares in Tahlequah list ages starting at birth or age 0 on the state record. Ask each one the youngest age it takes now and whether it has an infant opening.

Are home daycares an option for infants?

Yes. 6 of the Tahlequah daycares on this list are home daycares. Each listing shows the ages on its Oklahoma record.

Can I see an infant daycare's inspections?

Yes. Each shows its Oklahoma visits and what the state cited, in the state's words where the state publishes them.
