OUR STORY
Hi! We're so glad you found us.
I'm Tina, the founder of Millie Bo Peep.
I’ve spent most of my early career working in the legal setting as a Criminal Investigator. I received my undergraduate degree and Master’s degree in Criminal Justice. Although it was an enjoyable life path to be on, I knew it wasn’t the destination for me. I’m a Midwest girl with a lot of hobbies — and that included shopping for my kids. I find so much joy in picking out their outfits and toys.
When I was pregnant with my first child, Millie, I had a difficult time finding high quality, sustainable, trendy clothing and products for her. I knew I couldn't be the only person to feel this way. I wanted to bring a one stop shop to my local community in Kenosha, Wisconsin while also allowing the possibility to shop online. Each item at Millie Bo Peep has been carefully selected with your little in mind!
Our knowledgeable and kind staff is always ready to greet you with a smiling face! Our staff started on the same day, in May 2023, and have stuck by our side ever since. Take a moment to meet our team (from left to right):
