Last week this report gathered national attention when an owner of a daycare center in Oklahoma was found to have loaded guns inside the child care facility.

Police said they found the guns in the garage, attic and inside a safe.  According to the Department of Human Services, the guns are permissible inside home-based daycare centers as long as they are locked up and stored away from ammunition.

Police had raided the day care center as part of a forgery investigation.  A stolen checkbook was found on the premises.   Officers took 37-year-old Tina Butler, who runs the facility, into custody at the scene.  However, police indicate she is not the subject of the forgery investigation.

Neighbors had noticed surveillance cameras by every door and window.  “It’s a little suspicious that they’re coming in and out like that and don’t say hi and don’t have any interaction with anyone,” said one unidentified neighbor.

It is of vital importance that day care centers offer the highest degree of protection and safety for your children.  Day Care Centers must take every preventive measure possible  to ward off any danger that might be posed to your child when in their care.
