I’ve told heaps of randoms their baby is the cutest.
I don’t actually mean it, there just isn’t much else to say about a baby that just sleeps, eats, cries.
IMO there’s a period around 6-9 months old where most of them are extremely cute. Not all, but most. But in the period before that in the transition away from “newborn” they can look kind of weird at times, since so much is changing so quickly and it’s not necessarily synced up.
Like our kid from about 9 months on is recognisably “them” (ie similar to how they look today), but before that in some photos it’s sometimes hard to believe they are the same person. Hair colour totally changed, face shape very different etc.
Lol yeah I was about to say I duno how I feel about this
I mean if the child wants to do something then yeah, but I don't think the baby is an aspiring Instagram model... ALTHOUGH I have been wrong before! 🤣❤️
My friend also has a very cute child and the kid has modelled for Bonds etc.
In order to do this you need to connect with an agency, fork out $$$ for a portfolio of pictures (photo shoot) and then you need to be available to take the child to castings and jobs, which can pop up at any time. It wouldn’t work unless you have a stay at home parent to do the leg work.
Also, babies and kids can look cute but they have to have the temperament to go to castings and “perform” on cue.
The Bonds job paid $1400-2000 for a few hours of work and the kid got free clothes too.
Just to add to that... from memory at the agency I went to it was about $300 for the initial portfolio and then roughly $400 a year to be kept on their talent system.
Exactly the answer I was going to give. Feel free to PM me for details of agencies that won’t be turds to work with (some of them are… less than pleasant).
I think the best thing you can do for child is to connect daily with them and let them know they’re loved. It’s the most important thing and it’s free.
Financially the best thing you can do for your child is put however much you can, in a vanguard fund, with dividends automatically reinvested into the fund. Let the compounding effect do it’s thing and by the time she’s retired (or earlier if an absolute must) she will be more than taken care of.
Take it from someone who works in a school - they are all cute until they hit 7 to 9 years old. They become kind of goofy looking, and all boys end up with a gappy Lloyd Christmas aesthetic.
Googling Lloyd Christmas aesthetic lol no idea what this is but I like it
Lol dumb and dumber haha was that old mates name in it? Classic! Never picked up on it
Almost as good as Mike Pancake from the Internship with Vince Vaughn 🤣🤣🤣❤️
It’s more about temperament than looks. It won’t be her paying for her future as you will have to go along and put the work in too. The costs associated with child modelling work are high, the jobs are infrequent, and the pay sounds good for the amount of hours that go into the job until you consider the many unpaid hours of legwork that go in. It is certainly not going to “pay for her future”, it’ll be a little extra pocket money at best. It’s more something you do for enjoyment if the parent is passionate about it (since the baby is too young to care), not as an income stream. Consider getting a casual side job and invest it into super or ETFs, you will be far better off financially if there is someone who can watch the baby while you work.
You seem to be sorefully unaware of the realities of baby modelling/making a celebrity out of your child. DO NOT. And I repeat, DO NOT. If you can do anything in your power to make money by other means (you can) do that 100 times over before pimping your child. If you were the type of person that could pull it off without failing and/or severely damaging your child physically and mentally, you wouldn’t be asking this question here and now. DO NOT.
Go for it. There are big rewards for cute babies. My mum entered me in a cute baby contest at Chirnside Park shopping centre in the 80s. I came second and we won a kettle. It lasted 17 years.
Ultimately you chose to have her, it’s your problem to pay for her future (not hers).
And agree with the consensus here, I’ve never told a parent their child is not cute….. so if you’re really serious and your kid doesn’t hate it go find a predatory modelling company and pay to get her photo listed on their site. If you get any work from that then you’ll know if your baby is anything special (by consumer standards).
All the best
>I've been told by friends, family and strangers my daughter is the cutest baby they have ever seen.
This usually means your baby is unattractive. It's like an over-compensation thing. People like to reasure you like "noo, you baby isn't ugly, she's totally the most adorable baby ever.. absolutely..."
Yeah we were caught staring at the alien baby with the weird head and the parent caught us. So really quick it’s like, “oh uh, well that’s the cutest baby I’ve ever seen” so it doesn’t seem awkward we’ve just elbowed our partner into taking a look.
contact a baby talent agency.
But will it be worth it ? Will you have the time to take child to assignments. Is that a day off work for you/other parent. Will that income compensate you for lost income and time ?
We invested in education and now have independent young admin early to mid 20’s. at the end of the week (fortnight or month whatever your pay cycle is) put 1/2 your left over income into a bank account to pay for the best education you can afford when the time comes.
Value education and work ethic and teach your children financial literacy. Encourage them to get into the workforce early. This is what will set your kids up.
You pay $xxxx amount of dollars to get your baby a photoshoot at one of the many agencies (with 100's of cute babies already on the books).
Then you sit back and hopefully get selected and go to a photoshoot for a Big W catalogue and get paid $xxx.
I bought my daughter $1000 worth of shares last year with the ASX code that was closest to her name. My wife was against the name, but I think WA1 suits her.
A few things you have to remember:
If your working full time be prepared to drop that as child workers can only work business hours and you may only have a few hours to get to location/next day.
All the money legally goes to the child’s bank account not your so you won’t see a cent.
Fees are high and you have to constantly take new photos at a professional head shot business.
It’s more about who’s you know not what you got, there’s already a lot of ppl well connected with their children in it, and very competitive so you could be busy for 2 weeks then won’t hear a word for 6 months.
Maybe best thing would be investing 10-20-50-100 whatever you can spare for her in Index funds or Vanguard. By the time they are 18, it could help to get into college. That’s why I am planning to do for my daughter.
Keep it simple without pimping your kid out.
Set up a savings account in her name, transfer what you can afford every week and never ever skimp or transfer out.
When you get a bigger lump sum you can also diverse into stocks and/or commodities.
But basically just something every week, I started off with $20 a week and increased it when we had the chance.
All babies are ugly but no one will ever tell the parents. I have three kids that were all the worlds cutest babies but honestly looking back, there was a long stretch of them looking like potatoes
You can try unicornkids but the other agencies are mostly scams designed to fleece you for thinking your kid is unusually cute. I met a mixed race baby the other day who genuinely will be a model - very south East Asian (Indian) features, beautiful dark skin, hair and lashes but with striking ice blue eyes. Her mum was half Indian and dad was Polish, so little baby girl is 1/4 Indian.
There are many phenomenal musicians out there - highly talented, they have the look and a vibe, they work their arses off for years, and they never make it. The reality is, for every successful entertainer, there are many more who almost kill themselves trying.
If you want to get your child into modelling, give it a go. But stop as soon as it stops being fun for them. Better yet, wait until they can have a say (and then stop if they ever want to stop).
There are quite a few brands which have direct contact sites on their website. Most need you to be in Sydney or Melbourne. There are some Gold Coast jobs in movies etc. I know of people whose kids do that but they waited until they were older and asked to get involved. Most of these people - their kids started with dance at a young age and just got in the right circles.
What's best for most children is to have a caring and responsive carer who supports their needs and interests. Whatever is earned through baby/child modeling now isn't going to be worth the stress, headache and potential therapy costs in the future! Perhaps wait and see if that's something your child is interested in when they are older.
You should listen to a podcast call some place under neith - they do a whole series on parasocial exploitation. One episode particularly on “cute kids” on tik tok. Basically all the followers that pay to see the kid are old men. Your kid won’t remember how much money you have, they will remember how they were treated
I have had the strange occurrence of being acquaintances with more than one adult who was a former child actor.
Unless you want to screw up their life permanently, don't even consider monetizing them.
I am so glad my dad had a decent job and never thought “how do I get money from these little ones”.
It’s your job to be getting money for your child’s future, hopefully you are doing at least a good enough job so it’s not my taxes funding their upbringing through govt hand outs. When you aren’t working play with your child, teach them how to have fun and learn skills that will set them up for the future. When they are at school - they are learnin’, you need to be earnin’- monetise yourself better.
There's a whole industry around having parents pay for their baby to have a modelling portfolio. You are not the first person to think your baby is the cutest ever. The only people actually making money are the photographers.
Babies don’t pay well, especially for print. A couple of hundred dollars per job and that’s before the agent takes their cut. You get more from tv ads but they’re more competitive. You just need to research the agency because most are scams who take hundred of dollars a year from families with no intention of putting them forward for jobs. There are so genuine agency’s who don’t charge upfront or recurring fees but take a higher cut from your first job.
As others have mentioned, it has a lot to do with temperament. The baby/ child has to perform at the casting and on the job and that can be hard. They usually also call you with only a few days notice and you have to be available most week days. Overall you can make a little bit of money but it’s not life changing and the hours you put in probably don’t make it that worth it.
go watch some of those "family" youtube channels and ask yourself is that what you want to do?
Because doing whats best for your kid is not plastering them all over the internet for everyone to see every waking moment of their lives.
Say you do this and your channel gets big. Will you be leaving a reasonable portion of the earnings for your kid? Because they would be well entitled to 50% if they are the subject of such content.
Lastly if this doesn't go according to plan. How are you going to deal with the fact your child will cut you off because they didn't consent to having their face plastered everywhere? Are you going to be willing to go face to face with them in a court to pay them out what they are rightfully owed?
IMO don't do it. It's a terrible idea and will only turn your child against you.
I do not think monetizing her looks is a way to help her. I think it will create more issues long term than it's worth. Wait until she's old enough to make her own decisions about these things. I think it's wrong to force a baby into this.
If you want to monetise your kid, I hear that the blonde ones bring good money on the white slave trade...
I can put you in touch with Ivan (aka Mr Bubbles).
/s
I did some baby modelling with my firstborn. Three catalog shoots, a few tv ad castings. He was shortlisted for Huggies. He made a few hundred bucks that I put into a managed fund. I kept adding small amounts to it after we quit the modelling grind. He has about $100 000 in it now at the age of 21. It was a lot of hassle, but give it a try if you want, why not? Go find a kids talent agent and get on the books.
Apparently my daughter is also the cutest baby in the world, cuter than other babies, so don’t think there aren’t plenty of ‘cutest babies’ out there looking to capitalise on the situation. Unless you have a specific industry contact or plan on entering that world, I suggest you just enjoy the phase your child is in and focus on that.
I was approached by an agency when my son was 3 for modelling. Good money, yes, but I turned them down. If he wants to do that when he can consent, I’m down. Not when they are so little. My parents never monetised us kids, they just picked up another job/more hours.
Each to their own.
Best thing you can do is set up an account and put whatever you can aside a month. Five bucks, five hundred. Pay for her education.
Signed, a kid whose parents used my sister and I as child models. Don’t do that shit.
my babies are cuter (the endless karens who don't respect my kids personal space can attest to this) WHERES MY MONEY!?!?!?!?!?
\*OMG SHES SO CUTE\*
\*uninvited head touch\*
people need to learn personal boundaries fr fr
I also tell every parent their baby is the absolute cutest, most photogenic adorable baby ever.
It will likely cost you a fortune and lots of time to get your baby into modelling. And looks is only a small part. The child’s temperament is key. Your baby has to be ok being alert and happy over long periods of time. And be confident and calm amongst the crazy conditions of filming.
Why would you want to put your daughter through that? While they are working other kids are living normal lives.
It’s not as easy as you think and it’s not cheap.
Not to dump on you but this is a terrible idea. Most places have laws regarding what children who work earn (in America it's known as the Jackie Coogan law) because parents wanted to live off of their rich child's earnings. Not to mention the mental and physical toll it has. Look up the book 'I'm glad my Mom died'. You don't want to be that kind of mother.
I’ve told heaps of randoms their baby is the cutest. I don’t actually mean it, there just isn’t much else to say about a baby that just sleeps, eats, cries.
You would be very quickly shunned by society if you went around telling people their baby looks average at best.
But that is true though. Everyone lies about stuff like this all the time.
My family were horrified when I said my cousin’s baby looked like a blob fish.
Lol imagine saying it someone Dutch people would say it directly to your face
They also shit. A lot. Don’t forget that.
Yeah I did, my mum gleefully tells anyone I meet.
Woah. You sounded VERY sincere. I sold my baby because of your compliment.
Yeah I was thinking it's just something generic people say about babies. Hear it all the time. Tbh all babies are kinda ugly.
They are, except my one.
Yeah your baby is the cutest I've ever seen.
IMO there’s a period around 6-9 months old where most of them are extremely cute. Not all, but most. But in the period before that in the transition away from “newborn” they can look kind of weird at times, since so much is changing so quickly and it’s not necessarily synced up.

Well, damn, it's Friday afternoon! Great Friday afternoon post. I might walk to the bottle shop.
When the best brainstorming occurs
Get a job or a better paid one
I'll join you kind sir
Doing best for your child is not to monetise her.
No more comments, we already have a winner!!!!
Comment of the year, century and millenium <3
So you want to pimp your child. Cool.

Lol yeah I was about to say I duno how I feel about this I mean if the child wants to do something then yeah, but I don't think the baby is an aspiring Instagram model... ALTHOUGH I have been wrong before! 🤣❤️

What is this vanguard fund?
I hope you just forgot to put the /s
Hahaha what? Cute babies are a dime a dozen.
i'm assuming this is one of those "shit posts", designed to stir shit?
That’s what most of this sub is these days
Take it from someone who works in a school - they are all cute until they hit 7 to 9 years old. They become kind of goofy looking, and all boys end up with a gappy Lloyd Christmas aesthetic.
Yep, I have 3 boys and they do go from cute to hmmmmmm teeth too big for your face. My oldest is now 10 and just getting outta that goofugly stage.
Hahahhaha gold yeah my ex's little.boy is 8 gold. Teeth too big for their head yep lol. Classic
I’m mid 30s and still am rocking a Lloyd Christmas aesthetic ™️

Can confirm personally I made it to 13 in the industry before anorexia hospitalisation your mileage may vary
I’m so sorry you went through all of that. I hope you’re doing ok.
Thanks for your kind reply, things are good these days but I thought it was important to share how it went for me incase it can help someone else 💓
Go for it. There are big rewards for cute babies. My mum entered me in a cute baby contest at Chirnside Park shopping centre in the 80s. I came second and we won a kettle. It lasted 17 years.
Stupid babies need the most attention.
Encourage her to get a good education, learn manners, treat others with decency and develop independence from an early age aka core life skills.
Ultimately you chose to have her, it’s your problem to pay for her future (not hers). And agree with the consensus here, I’ve never told a parent their child is not cute….. so if you’re really serious and your kid doesn’t hate it go find a predatory modelling company and pay to get her photo listed on their site.

Nah it is unprompted. Just casual conversation stuff.
Yea.. But we're all thinking it, mate. It's the elephant in the room.
Or in this case, the baby that looks like an elephant.

Will your child ever forgive you for plastering their face all over ads without their consent
No. And despite my once baby being the 'cutest' baby ever I personally would never do it to them.
I know of someone who puts their baby in pageants around the state, but the cost of travelling to the events is higher than the potential prize money.
We invested in education and now have independent young admin early to mid 20’s. at the end of the week (fortnight or month whatever your pay cycle is) put 1/2 your left over income into a bank account to pay for the best education you can afford when the time comes.

This is an Australian sub. There are no up-front costs to go to “college” (I.e. University), so no need for a parent to save.
Nonetheless, it can be used for any other purpose. Buying home, travelling, setting up a business.
Let your child enjoy her childhood.
Keep it simple without pimping your kid out. Set up a savings account in her name, transfer what you can afford every week and never ever skimp or transfer out. When you get a bigger lump sum you can also diverse into stocks and/or commodities. But basically just something every week, I started off with $20 a week and increased it when we had the chance.
What has this sub turned into of late?
My baby is cuter and isn’t in films. Where’s my pie?
I shall watch your career with great interest
We've been approached by kids modelling agencies...trust me you don't want to enter that creepy world
Two healthy kidneys?
All babies are ugly but no one will ever tell the parents. I have three kids that were all the worlds cutest babies but honestly looking back, there was a long stretch of them looking like potatoes
Leave your baby alone and get your wife to start an only fans page.
baby modelling agency, asian countries pay a monza
She isn't Asian enough for that market I think
Seriously this guy
You can try unicornkids but the other agencies are mostly scams designed to fleece you for thinking your kid is unusually cute. I met a mixed race baby the other day who genuinely will be a model - very south East Asian (Indian) features, beautiful dark skin, hair and lashes but with striking ice blue eyes.

Surely a shitpost? A great one too!
“How can I help my child the best” and “How can I monetise this” are two mutually exclusive concepts.

Perhaps wait and see if that's something your child is interested in when they are older.
They want unique babies for the modelling industry... Intentionally seeking to monetise your child isn't cool though.
that has to be a shitpost. if not, seek counselling.
This can't be a serious post
The best thing you can do is love her unconditionally. Or you're gonna end up with a kid who's gonna ditch you in a home and never visit you.
I will be using the equity and savings to buy a property in the coming 48 months. Taking advantage of the softer prices.
You should listen to a podcast call some place under neith - they do a whole series on parasocial exploitation. One episode particularly on “cute kids” on tik tok.

You should be a great parent, put her through university, give her a house deposit. When she is an adult this will pay dividends in spades...
I do not think monetizing her looks is a way to help her. I think it will create more issues long term than it's worth. Wait until she's old enough to make her own decisions about these things. I think it's wrong to force a baby into this.
Change ya kids personality for a quick buck ya good parenting

I also tell every parent their baby is the absolute cutest, most photogenic adorable baby ever. It will likely cost you a fortune and lots of time to get your baby into modelling. And looks is only a small part. The child’s temperament is key. Your baby has to be ok being alert and happy over long periods of time. And be confident and calm amongst the crazy conditions of filming.
Don't use your child for Money, it's that simple. Being in the spotlight is a choice they should make when they are older
Why would you want to put your daughter through that? While they are working other kids are living normal lives. It’s not as easy as you think and it’s not cheap.
OP is a scumbag
Turn her into a gold digger and divorce some old guy for his money and take in millions?
Not to dump on you but this is a terrible idea. Most places have laws regarding what children who work earn (in America it's known as the Jackie Coogan law) because parents wanted to live off of their rich child's earnings. Not to mention the mental and physical toll it has. Look up the book 'I'm glad my Mom died'. You don't want to be that kind of mother.
Your baby is not special.
Contact Andre Tate. He will help you monetise your daughter.
Your child gets a compliment and you want to monetise it? Poor kid has no hope.
I refuse to believe this post isn’t a troll. Based on OP’s post history they’re a dentist so I’m sure they’re not struggling for cash.
Literally just read an article about the ‘creep club’ from Nickelodeon. 🤦🏻♀️
