KidGig: Youth Jobs

Now live in the Bay Area. Neighbors post small jobs, local teens 13–17 apply and get hired. Payments always go to a parent or guardian.

KidGig connects neighbors with local kids and teens (ages 13–17) who are ready to help with small jobs — yard work, pet sitting, tutoring, light errands, and more.

For Customers: Post a job with a budget and date, review applicants, and choose who you'd like to work with. When the job's done, pay securely in the app — no cash needed.

For Kids: Browse jobs posted near you, apply to the ones that fit your skills, and message the customer directly once you're chosen. Build a rating history as you complete more jobs.

Every job includes: • In-app messaging to coordinate details • Secure payment processing through Stripe • A rating system so both sides can build trust over time • Reporting and blocking tools to keep the community safe

Payments made through the app are collected by the KidGig team and forwarded to the young worker's parent or guardian via Venmo or Zelle, so payment always goes through a responsible adult.

Whether you need a hand around the house or you're looking to earn some money doing work you're good at, KidGig makes it simple to connect with people right in your neighborhood.
