Connie-Rose Seabourne, a 23-month-old little girl in the UK with Down syndrome, has always received comments from her mother Julie’s friends for her beautiful smile. After they told her that she should try contacting a modeling agency, she did. Now, Connie has two contracts and is becoming a popular toddler model!

“When I spoke to the agencies about her Down’s syndrome diagnosis, no one even batted an eyelid,” Julie told Daily Mail. “She absolutely loved it. She follows direction very well and she has so much fun in front of the cameras.”

“I was assessed as being at higher risk of having a baby with Down’s Syndrome when I was pregnant and could have had the diagnostic test to find out but I didn’t want it because it just wasn’t an issue.”

“We have friends whose children have been diagnosed with Down’s syndrome and have had nothing but positive experiences of children with the diagnosis.”
