Licensing in the UK
Children Filming and Performing on Stage in the UK
Having a child feature on a production in the UK may require you to apply for a child performance license.
We take the stress out of the whole process and can apply for a licence for production companies making the process seamless.
There are strict laws which need to be adhered to when having children working on stage and screen.
If you have a project featuring children get in touch and we’ll get everything sorted for you.

Child and Baby Wranglers on Film Sets
Being on a professional film set can often be a daunting experience, even for the most talented children.
Our highly experienced wranglers use a series of techniques to put young performer’s nerves at ease before shots. Wranglers keep children focused and can help with the delivery of lines or specific expressions needed for the script.
Our professional, friendly child wranglers work with the client or director to help them achieve exactly what they want from the child while keeping the atmosphere on set calm and fun. The director is therefore able to focus on the other aspects of the shoot in confidence that the child will deliver.
Wranglers are also fantastic at keeping the energy of the children up during long repetitive filming sessions.
We also have a select number of baby wranglers who are amazing at getting the best out of babies and toddlers on set. If your production requires a baby or toddler a wrangler will work with the parent to learn their routine and bond with them helping to get the action required from them on set.
All of our wranglers are DBS checked, suitably qualified, experienced and insured.
