could your child be the next TOT supermodel ?

If you think your child or toddler has potential we are here to help you - the Baby & Child Modelling guide is available soon!

If you think your child has that extra certain something it takes to become a model, then Katie the founder of ALBA MODEL INFO is here to help!

Katie has produced a unique, accessible and informative visual guide and information on how to make sure your baby or child can safely enter the fun and fantastic world of baby and child modelling. The Baby & Child Modelling Guide is a unique DVD that introduces parents to the multi-million pound child modelling industry. It explains who needs baby & child models, how the industry works plus the agency and the client's points of view on the industry, along with information on payments to child models and parental chaperones, plus what to expect at an assignment showing an overview of a real cover and editorial shoot with Practical Parenting one of the UK's premier parenting magazines.

Katie's aim is to pass on the essential advice and knowledge that all parents require before undertaking this interesting journey with their child into the multi-million pound modelling industry.

Katie decided that it was time to provide a DVD with essential information that is aimed at helping the parents of babies and children enter safely and avoid an exploitive element. Many parents have been and continue to become the unfortunate victims of up front fee, and Internet scams. The poor legislation to date concerning agencies and how they trade still leaves those aiming to enter the industry vulnerable to the many cons. Katie points out that ALBA MODEL INFO'S website www.albamodel.info receives many thousands of enquiries from parents and she finds it upsetting to hear of the many who have become unfortunate victims of up front fees at Hotel Scouting scams, stating that if the many that attend these held regionally each weekend throughout the UK, had gone to Alba in the first place they would have saved themselves so much time, money and worry.

Says Katie. "I have written guides about modelling, but I have found that the content is very often misread or essential parts are skipped, so it makes sense to produce this visual guide which gives all parents of babies and children up to age 11, an insight into the real world of baby and child modelling, along with the correct way to enter the industry".

The DVD makes a great all year round gift for those with talented and good-looking children and especially to anyone with a new baby. Available from leading supermarkets soon - check back for details
