About BridgeCare:

💻 BridgeCare is a white-label child care data and community management platform — made for state agencies and local organizations that works for everyone — families, providers, and government agencies. Using our integrated software, we provide real-time supply and demand data to help parents find available care faster and to empower more effective policy and resource decision-making.

🧒 We simplify child care and early childhood education for working parents and providing better options for working mothers whose careers are disproportionately impacted by lack of access to quality and affordable child care.

🌐 We enable governments to build well-funded and well-functioning early child care and education systems, including universal preschool and Pre-K programs, harnessing the power of real-time data in BridgeCare.

📚 We serve more than 500,000 families and uniting 50,000 early care providers through a modern SaaS portal.
