    Is there a child care job for me?
    I'm almost 16 and I really love kids but in Oklahoma I'm not sure if you can work in a daycare. If anyone knows of any then please share.

    I am not sure what daycare policies are there, but even if you can't work in a daycare for whatever reason, try camp counsilor, or nanny. I got lucky when I was 16 and got to be a nanny at a summer camp for one of the counsilors. I had an awesome summer and got paid to hang out with a sweet little girl.

    Call a few childcare centers and ask. Usually you will be required to have some level of training... for example a certificate in early childhood education or development, or a certain number of college credits in early childhood education. You might at least be able to work as an assistant and learn what is expected, and how best to go about obtaining the training needed.
