Hi Melissa,

It's not possible to tell you what is causing the problem from afar, but oil pressure is critical to an engine's well-being so do not drive anywhere without getting it fixed. First thing to check is the oil level itself and top if up if needs be. If that doesn't fix the issue then get the car to a mechanic as soon as you can to look at it. Hopefully it's something small like the oil light switch itself.

Best of luck
