From Fun to Life Skills: The Real Benefits of Child Modelling

Which of us doesn’t want our offspring to look back on their childhood with nothing but fond memories?

As parents, our goals are to ensure our youngsters are happy, healthy and well prepared for the adult lives ahead of them.

Apply to be a model

Of course, this isn’t always easy and being a parent can be extremely challenging at times, but still we do everything we can to ensure the wellbeing of those we love most in the world.

Here at Models Direct, many of us are parents too – combining the rollercoaster ride of family life with our busy operations at the agency.

And we just love working with our child models because it is rewarding to see just how much they and their parents enjoy taking part in our assignments.

Yes, child modelling can be a great pastime for many boys and girls.

We receive a steady stream of reviews from parents telling us just how much their little ones have enjoyed it.

They report back on how our clients ensure their youngsters are well cared for and that every booking is great fun.

In fact, very often the children completely forget the cameras are there!

They tell us how their little ones chatter happily about their day out all the way home – and eagerly look forward to doing something similar again.

Hire a model

And, of course, just like us, all our child models and their parents love nothing more than seeing the final images, advertisement or marketing material that they appear in.

But beyond the pleasure of the day itself, and the memories our child models make, junior modelling brings with it many other benefits.

Youngsters who are used to posing for still or film cameras grow in confidence and become more self-assured as individuals.

They learn to listen carefully to directions and to follow instructions.

They learn the value of working within a team and of the importance of punctuality and reliability.

Gaining all these soft skills will only serve to help them become much more well-rounded, confident and capable adults.

Not all children will enjoy modelling but if you think yours might, why not read some of the reviews left for us by other parents?

Tiegan’s mum told us all about her experience at an assignment at a soft play centre:

“My daughter went to Wacky Warehouse today to do some videos.

“She absolutely loved it from start to finish.

“The people who she was working with throughout the day were amazing – so kind, really funny and definitely knew their business.

“They were so lovely to me, my daughter and my dad – and supplied refreshments when needed.

“My daughter had so much fun – she was full of smiles throughout.

“At the end of the day, she told me that she felt confident and loved playing on the soft play.

“She said she was just being herself and had loads of fun throughout.”
