A good baby model will earn a decent living, have fun and even make friends as they grow up in the industry.  It can also often give them self-confidence.

However, the second question you have to ask yourself is whether YOU have what it takes to commit to such a venture.  Very much like adult modeling, the baby industry can be tough on parent and child so you need to consider whether you both have the temprament for this work and also the endurance.

The main areas to consider are:

1.  The days can be quite long and tiring and you may be standing for hours on end working with your child and the photographer.  Are you up for the challenge?

2.  To secure the top jobs you are likely to need to travel long distances which can cost your time and money and may be difficult for a working parent.  Obviously you do not need to take these jobs, but it can be the difference between an average and highly successful baby modeling career.

3.  You both need to have an outgoing, happy temperament overall as your child is usually going to be smiling a LOT, and you will need to be patient and able to communicate with quite a number of people on a regular basis.  A shy parent will find all of this interaction incredibly draining.

4.  Is this about money, fame or a laugh.  Go into it knowing what you want to achieve, but make sure that the focus is on your baby first and foremost.
