What Makes A Good Baby Model Agent?
Does your baby really need an agent? Yes! An agent will help you
find work.
A good modeling agent knows the business well. They have
contacts in the industry that help them learn about modeling gigs
and relationships with ad agencies who might give them inside
information or special access to go-sees. They will help you get
open and closed interviews and will give you honest feedback. They
should have enough clients to warrant being in business but not so
many that they don’t have time to really work for your baby. They
also should not have too many of the same ‘type’ of baby. If they
have ten babies that are eight months old with blonde hair and blue
eyes, how often will each of those babies get called for an
go-see?
Many agents that represent baby or child models are former
models themselves. They can understand the business challenges and
be very empathetic. Laws and rules are in place to protect kids and
an agent that deals with kids exclusively or has many child clients
can be a great option for you, especially in the beginning of your
baby’s modeling career.
