Affordable childcare options in Tulsa - 5 months and counting

I have 16 kids and I need to interview and work without a sitter. There are 16 people counting on me, so I am trying to be careful. A neighbour offered help but not every day. How long did subsidies take?

I swapped afternoons with another parent. It took some planning and saved us both money.

Our county's childcare assistance took about 24 weeks to approve, but it covered most of the cost.
