Build Meaningful Connections

Students

At Colledge, we believe student work should adapt to your life—not the other way around. Forget rigid shifts and low pay; we connect you with opportunities designed to fit around your busy schedule and compensate you fairly.

It’s flexibility, empowerment, and a brighter future—delivered on your terms.

Take a break during finals week and ramp up hours over winter break. Whether it's remote work, on-site gigs, or a mix of both, embrace the opportunities that align to your preferences.

The Founders' Story

We’ve been on both sides of the equation: hustling through inflexible, low paying college jobs that lacked purpose, and navigating adulthood with endless to-do lists and not enough hands to help at home or at work. That shared experience sparked an idea. What if we could connect motivated, hardworking students with meaningful work opportunities while providing adults with skilled, reliable support they can trust? The result is Colledge—a platform designed to bring value to both sides, simplifying life and business for our clients, while empowering students to succeed by offering them flexible gig work opportunities

FAQ

Colledge is the only job platform that is specifically designed to connect students to the booming gig economy and clients to its most underutilized pool of talent - students.

Colledge is entirely powered by student freelancers and we offer the only dedicated website for parents, professionals, and business owners to find talented students to support them across dozens of services, like babysitting, organizing, personal assistant services, or exciting new offerings like culinary services or Skill-sitting™. Skill-sitting™ allows talented students to engage with children while teaching them how to play a new sport or learn a new skill -- like learning a new language, swimming, or playing an instrument.

Colledge also uniquely offers clients the opportunity to request and pay for comprehensive background checks for students prior to booking them. Our background checks, reviews, and community oversight allow for a secure environment where both students and clients can work together with peace of mind when booking.

Skill-sitting™ provides value for both students and parents by rethinking traditional services like babysitting, private lessons, and caretaking to offer a more engaging, modern, and interactive childcare experience.

Skill-sitting™ emerged when our team recognized that talented students across the country who were on varsity swim, baseball, and basketball teams, in music schools, and even those who honed their crafts at skate parks or on golf courses, can do a lot more than just passive babysitting! We also recognized that many children with traditional babysitters are bored of the typical babysitting experience. With these realities in mind, we knew everyone could benefit by leveraging thousands of available, talented student’s various skills by allowing them to share their refined academic, musical, artistic, or sports talents with children across the country. If Colledge could help make these Skill-sitting™ connections and facilitate more meaningful caretaking engagements, we could change what babysitting means and improve the traditional babysitting or caretaking experience by making it more interactive, educational, and fun! With this exciting realization, Skill-sitting™ was born!

We created Quick Pay™ to simplify the payment process for students and clients. Quick Pay™ makes paying students on our platform seamless and secure— no cash hassles, no third-party applications, no delays; just instant, on-site payments that keep everything organized and secure.

The gig economy is the fastest-growing segment of the labor market. It refers to a series of short-term engagements that provide more flexibility, choice, and control for both the student and the client.

You can absolutely find long-term arrangements on Colledge! Students and clients can get to know each other through short-term gigs and then create longer-term work relationships through the platform. Colledge even provides additional incentives and perks for ongoing work engagements.

Students must be over 18 years of age and have a college domain email address. We encourage both students and clients to enable payments via Stripe when creating a profile.

Any student pursuing a form of higher education is welcome to create a profile on Colledge - including students at two-year colleges, technical colleges, culinary schools, graduate programs, and so on.

Signing up guarantees that you are among the first to get notified of gigs in your area.

We are currently focused on NY, NJ, PA, CT.
