Description: Acorn Children's Center joined the Child Care Inc. family in 1988. Acorn was the first licensed child care center in Oklahoma City and originally opened in 1960. With such a long standing history in OKC, we decided to keep the Acorn name and continue the tradition.
Where possible, ChildcareCenter provides inspection reports as a service to families. This information is deemed reliable, but is not guaranteed. We encourage families to contact the daycare provider directly with any questions or concerns, as the provider may have already addressed some or all issues. Reports can also be verified with your local daycare licensing office.
