FAQs for Our Full-Time and Part Time Daycare in OKC

swoosh pink

What is part time daycare in OKC?

Part time daycare in OKC is a flexible scheduling option for families who need regular childcare but don’t require a full workweek. This schedule allows your child to join us on a set routine—such as specific days of the week or designated hourly blocks—making it the ideal solution for parents with hybrid work schedules or part-time jobs.

For children who are primarily used to being at home, a part-time schedule also serves as a wonderful stepping stone toward preschool, kindergarten, or full-time care. It provides a gentle introduction to a structured classroom setting, helping them build confidence, adapt to a group environment, and ease potential separation anxiety at a comfortable, gradual pace.

Even on a part-time schedule, we make sure your child gets the most out of their time with Child Care Inc.! They will be fully integrated into our play-based ELM curriculum, participate in purposeful group socialization, enjoy hands-on sensory activities, and more.

What is drop-in care?

Drop-in care provides on-demand, flexible childcare on an as-needed basis without requiring a fixed weekly commitment. At Child Care Inc., we offer drop-in care because it is a perfect option for OKC families handling non-traditional shifts, unexpected schedule changes, doctor appointments, or occasional weekday errands.

With this choice, your child gets to jump right into our safe, play-based environment for the day, giving you complete peace of mind while you handle your to-do list.

What is full-time care?

In contrast to part time daycare in OKC, full-time care offers comprehensive, daily support for working families who need reliable care throughout the entire workweek. This consistent Monday-through-Friday routine ensures your child is fully immersed in our structured daily curriculum and socialization milestones.

This predictable, secure rhythm and time with both peers and teachers can help children develop strong social skills and grow stronger academically.

What is the drop-off and pick-up routine?

When you drop off your child for our full-time or part time daycare in OKC programs, make sure to inform the staff that you have arrived, then sign in your child. From there, you can drop off your little ones in their designated room, where they will be under the care of our experienced staff.

During your pick-up time, make sure to once again notify the staff, talk to the teacher, and sign your child out before they leave the premises. Children can only be picked up by their parent or caregiver, unless their primary guardian has authorized another individual to do so.

Are there transportation options available?

We do offer transportation! Each location has a bus list, which can help your family easily navigate travel to the facility your children are enrolled in. As a trusted child care provider serving Oklahoma City, we provide reliable transportation to and from program field trips, designated public schools, and facilities within our company.

Will your staff support my child’s educational success?

Child Care Inc. is ready to help your children develop their academic and personal skills. Our locations offer Early Learning Matters (ELM) curriculum for younger children, after-school support for school-age children, summertime visits to the Linwood Lab, and a Pre-K option with Epic Charter School.

Do you have options for late-night or weekend care?

We know that not every family’s schedule fits within the traditional workday, which is why we have a location that offers extended, flexible hours to accommodate your needs.

Acorn Children’s Center offers extended hours from 6:00 AM to midnight, Monday through Friday, with Saturday care available until 4:00 PM—perfect for families needing evening or weekend support.

No matter your schedule, the staff at our full-time and part time daycare in OKC is fully committed to providing safe, reliable care when you need it most.

What safety measures do you have in place at your locations?

Your child’s safety is our top priority. We go beyond minimum state requirements with advanced security measures that monitor all traffic in and out of the center, as well as state-of-the-art surveillance systems covering every classroom and shared space.

How do you keep the centers clean and healthy?

We maintain a rigorous, regular cleaning schedule and use the newest technology to disinfect our environments and ensure clean, well-circulated air. A clean environment is a healthy one, and we take that responsibility seriously.
