We know this industry.We also know your kids.

Sprout didn't startwith a business plan.It started with experience.

After two decades in this industry, Shaina had seen the business from nearly every angle — behind the camera, alongside clients and creatives, as an agent, and eventually as a parent herself.

Sprout grew out of all of it.

The things that worked. The things that didn't. The relationships that matter. And the belief that kids and their families deserved representation that felt a little more personal.

Because this business moves fast. There are castings, callbacks, holds, bookings, contracts, long days, early call times, last-minute changes and about a thousand industry terms nobody explains to you when you start.

But behind all of that is still a kid.

That's something we never want to lose sight of.

Today, Sprout represents children across multiple markets while staying rooted in the same idea it started with: know our talent, communicate with our families, build strong industry relationships, and make decisions with the long-term best interest of the children we represent in mind.

SHAINA

Sprout starts with Shaina.

With two decades of industry experience, Shaina has seen this business from nearly every angle — behind the camera, alongside clients and creatives, as an agent, and as a parent herself.

That combination matters. She understands what makes talent stand out, what clients and casting teams are looking for, what happens behind the scenes to get a child from submission to set, and what families need in order to navigate this industry well.

Shaina founded Sprout with the belief that representation should be personal. Not just submitting kids and hoping something sticks, but actually knowing the children we represent, understanding where they fit, building real industry relationships, and making decisions with the long-term best interest of our talent and families in mind.

Today, she oversees Sprout as a whole — the agency's direction, client and industry relationships, standards, strategy, and the bigger decisions that shape how we operate and grow.

Emily works closely with Sprout talent and families on the day-to-day side of representation — from castings, availability and bookings to profiles, photos, casting accounts and development.

With a background in modeling and more than a decade of industry experience, she understands this business from both sides of the camera. That perspective shapes the way she works with talent: helping families understand not only what they need to do, but why it matters.

If you've received a casting, need help getting your child's materials where they need to be, want to talk development, or are trying to figure out what comes next, there's a very good chance you'll be talking to Emily.
