Child's passport

I'm just looking for some advice on getting a child passport if both parents don't have one. Could someone tell me what paperwork I would need. I have child and both parents birth certificates. I've tried the gov website but can't get past needing to upload a picture, but I don't have that yet, just trying to get organised. Thanks in advance ☺️

You take just need to take a photo on your phone and email it to yourself to then upload

I email photos etc to myself and then pull it onto my laptop desktop. I can then drag it into the file box like the one for the passport online

Depending on when you were born you may need grandparents birth certificates too. I think it's after 1983. You have to have a right to citizenship.
