Why this rating
This daycare earned 4 out of 5 stars overall. Process quality reflects an Oklahoma Reaches rating of Level 3 (out of 4). Structural quality reflects a clean inspection record across 18 visits in the last 3 years (most recently inspected April 2026). The structural rating also includes Oklahoma's licensing baseline — what every licensed daycare in the state must meet. Oklahoma caps infant ratios at 1:4, toddler ratios at 1:6, and preschool ratios at 1:15. Lead teachers must hold a High School Diploma. Teachers must complete 12 hours of annual training.
