The state of Oklahoma has strong regulations regarding the care of children. In the state of Oklahoma, anyone who watches a child longer than 15 hours a week, or has multiple of children in their care requires a license.

According to the Oklahoma Department of Human Services, child care provided in the child's own home (which would be the usual situation for babysitting) or by relatives or through informal arrangements that parents make with friends or neighbors (which would cover pretty much any other situation that could be reasonably called "babysitting") is exempt from the normal child care licensing requirements.

So, no, you don't need one, unless you're providing a formal service for more than 15 hours per week outside the child's home, in which case it's considered "Child Care" and not "babysitting."
