Systems
We Help Governments Provide Parents a Single Point of Access to All Early Care Services and Enable System Wide Integration
The
EarlyCarePlus

EarlyCarePlus is a single State & Local Multi-Enterprise Early Care Platform that connects all families to child care and early education services from birth through school age. The platform delivers the first true coordinated care solution with no wrong door and generates never before seen data to support policy and investment decisions.
The Solution for ECCE System
Transformation & Data Interoperability
Delivering a world class user experience to families
The Parent & Provider App
​What took weeks and months for parents to find care is now minutes. The EarlyCarePlus App provides a secure single point of access to all services with complete and reliable information and a trusted online experience. It also helps providers fill spaces and offer insights regarding demand to generate revenue.
ONE STATE & LOCAL PLATFORM PROVIDING
One Circle of Care
Early Care Plus' business model is not a typical one-off, business-to-government venture.
Operating as a “Fourth Sector” public benefit corporation, we harness the shared intention of public, private, and non-profit organizations to maximize positive impact.
By blending a new business model with new technology it’s finally possible to provide “one circle of care” for families and children.

"Early Care Plus envisions innovative state governments radically improving access to human services, beginning with Early Childhood Care and Education (ECCE) services for all families.
Integrating experience from a proven pilot, with input from a vast network of industry leaders, Steering Impact is developing EarlyCarePlus, a state-of-the-art technology platform and app to not just refer, but actually connect families to services.

“Covid-19 disrupted the entire child care system, revealing its inadequacies as well as offering lessons for the future – making this a perfect time to introduce new solutions.
​
A far-reaching, revolutionary solution is needed – one that comes with the expertise and support to allow state child care administrators to take on system transformation amidst their competing responsibilities and demands. Our innovative EarlyCarePlus Platform is a key piece of that solution.”
