For teens

Join the hive

Tell us what you're good at and when you're free. We'll match you with families, neighbours and local businesses in Ottawa who need a hand, and you'll get your own profile card on Meet the teens.

1Fill in the form

Takes about five minutes. Skills, neighbourhood, availability.

2We get in touch

We email you, and a parent or guardian if you're under 18, to say hi and check a few things.

3Get your card

Your card goes up with your initials and skills. Every job you finish adds to your hiring score.

What goes on your card

  • Your initials, never your full name
  • Your neighbourhood and age range
  • Your skills and when you're available
  • Your hiring score: jobs finished and your rating from clients

What stays private

  • Your email, phone, address and school
  • Photos. Every card uses a bee avatar instead
  • Clients never contact you directly. Every message comes through us, with your parent or guardian copied
  • You can change or remove your card at any time (see below)

Change or remove your card

Tap a button below, then enter your card number, like #TH004, and the email you signed up with (or your parent or guardian's). If the email matches, the change happens right away and we send a confirmation to the address on your card. You can update your skills, availability or neighbourhood, or take the card down for good.

Sign up form

If you're under 18, a parent or guardian needs to know you're signing up, and we'll include them in every match. Questions? Email teenhirehive@gmail.com.
