Does my child have what it takes?
We will happily give our opinion on how photogenic we believe your child is but we cannot promise a model agency will sign them. Every agency has a recruitment-criteria and this may vary from time-to-time based on the industry requirements and the type of children getting work. For child modelling, there's far more to consider than just whether your child is classically good-looking. Personality also plays a crucial part in their appeal so it’s important they are likeable, confident and co-operative.
Be aware child modelling takes a lot of time and dedication. Once you are signed, agencies will expect you to be available for castings at the drop of a hat, which can mean long days and expensive travel with no guarantee of a booking at the other end. Discuss this prospect with your child and ensure you are both happy before pursuing the opportunity.

What should I look for when choosing an agency?
- Always research the agency thoroughly by using the Internet to search forums such as Net Mums, and ask for parents feedback and experiences on social networking model groups.
- Visit the agency's website to see the type of clients they are working with. To be 100% sure they are working with the clients they claim to, contact the PR team of the brands and ask.
- Consider the amount of children within your child’s age bracket currently on the agency’s books, and take note of the types of jobs they are getting their models. Quantity is really important on the basis there are only a certain amount of jobs to go around, so the more children, the more internal competition your child will have.
- Child modelling agencies can charge a fee to list models on their books, however, it’s important to evaluate the cost vs income reimbursement. Ask the agency what their joining fee is
