Our first contact with this agency was at a shopping mall where they video-taped our child. I received an email from the agency a few months later stating that my child had been "selected" to appear on a cable television show featuring models. When I called to get information, I was told that although there was no obligation in order to be on the cable show, my child would need to attend a "Baby Toddler Workshop" that would cost $500 (the workshop includes a website and photos). There was no specific appt. time and I was told that it could take hours with no other details. When I arrived at their office I discovered that it was a cattle call...very crowded and disorganized. I left after only a few mintues once I discovered what it was all about.

Wilhelmina-Dan Agency doesn't charge talent to be represented by our agency. The television show was an example of us trying to help those baby & toddlers have experience and a resume builder. The seminar for parents was not a requirement, however, for those that chose to participate, it included a small professional photoshoot, inclusion on a booking website and printing of 100 color headshots.

We stand behind our record of integrity and always suggest individuals interested in getting started in this industry check with the Better Business Bureau for a company's history and integrity.
