What is Teen Assistant?
The demand for teen help in the Westfield local area grew and grew. Brendan, already a member of YEA!

And it was his Instagram social media platform that caught my eye! Brendan does an amazing job highlighting his business through posts that show his happy crew of teens helping others and demonstrating what services they offer! I adore their “Staff” shirts and smiling faces! Teen Assistant has over 1300 likes on Facebooks, 100% satisfaction, and over 50 customer reviews giving them nothing but 5 Stars!!

Brendan has six consistent teen friends who work with him.
