Quin and Reed Baron played the role of Reed Hellstrom on The Young and the Restless! The boys had a recurring role on Heroes and you can catch them in the upcoming season of Californication!


Q&A is not to be duplicated elsewhere and claimed as their own. STAR-KIDZ EXCLUSIVES



1. How did the boys like working with Amelia (Victoria)?

The boys loved working with Amelia...she is a lovely person...and always hung out in our dressing room before scenes. She would hold Quin and Reed, play with them...she made them feel very comfortable working with her.


2. How did they like working with That (J.T.)?

Again, working with Thad was great...he was very playful with the boys...very respectful of the whole process.


3. Did the boys get to spend time with any of the other Y&R children backstage?

We were always in our own dressing room...so the amount of time that the boys spent with other kids on the Y&R set was limited to shooting.


4. How did you feel learning the boys booked Y&R?

We were very excited about it...Quin and Reed were only 1 month old...and were preemies...so, they were very small but healthy. We had to get their doctor to sign off on letting them 'work'. Just FYI...the show was very good about making sure that anyone who held or even were going to touch the boys in a scene, used hand sanitizer. This was initially a concern for us because the boys were preemies.


5. What was it like to be part of Heroes?

Heroes was a very exciting set to work on. It was so much fun to see my little guys who couldn't even talk yet take direction so easily. I was amazed. Of course them having a power...was just so much fun as well.


6. What has been some of the funniest things to happen behind the scenes?

Not really funny per say...but, Reed took his first walk across the room on the set of Heroes. It between takes we were waiting in a side room and he started to walk across the floor to get to a toy he liked on the other side.


7. Have you and the boys kept in touch with any of the YR cast?

We were not able to keep in touch with the Y& R cast...although, I'm sure that if we ran into them again...we would all be very happy to see one another.


8. What has been your favorite scenes the boys filmed for Y&R?

I think I may have like the Halloween episode that we shot...but, it may have been because of the adorable pirate costumes that the boys had on.


9. What has the set of Californication been like?

Califonication has been a very fun set. They had never worked with children before, so this was really a big deal for them. The episodes that were written with the boys new character "Little Stuart' have all been very ambitious for a child of 3 to do...and I am very happy to say that Quin and Reed have been wonderful. The new season is airing in January and Quin and Reed will be in the first 2 and the last 2 episodes of the season.


10. Do you have a favorite Y&R memory with the boys?

I think just going to set and having everyone be so warm with the children...and with us, (the parents). A show like Y & R has worked with so many children in the past...they are very good at getting them in and out.


What is important advise you would give to other parents?

Make sure your child is having fun! Also, trust your instincts...as a parent, if you feel that something on set is not safe for your child to do...speak up. It is the set teachers job to make sure rules are being followed on set...but, remember, you are the parent...you are inevitably responsible for your child. Working on set can be very fun...and a great way to save money for college!
