Looking to hire a daycare/baby sitter?
Saint Joseph College has a Babysitting Bulletin Board where students who are interested in finding a babysitting job look. Simply create a flyer with as much specific information as possible: ages of children, hours/days requested, whether you need the student to drive your children around, what town you are in and contact information. Send the flyer as an e-mail attachment to postings@sjc.edu or fax it to 860.231.6734.

Selecting a Major
The staff of the Career Development Center can assist you in developing an understanding of your interests, skills and values in relation to choosing a major.
