Millie is completely and utterly obsessed with all things circus—and has been since the grand old age of 2. What started as a curiosity very quickly turned into a full-blown lifestyle. Now at 3, circus isn’t just something she does… it’s who she is.
If there’s a circus show in town, Millie is there—once is never enough, twice is just the warm-up. She has been part of Little Big Top since she was 2 and now also takes private aerial lessons with Sinead, who has clearly become one of her favourite humans on the planet.
At home, things are… slightly less “normal.” Millie has her own indoor climbing and aerial setup, complete with silks and a trapeze bar, and spends hours on it every day. Our house regularly doubles as a performance venue, with Millie putting on full shows for family and unsuspecting guests—usually in her swimmers—set to her favourite songs, “Que Si Que No” by Lapso Producciones and “The Pi Song” by AsapSCIENCE.
We’re not entirely sure if we’re raising a child or a tiny touring performer - but we’re here for it.
More than anything, Millie just loves to watch, learn, and try. She’s fearless, determined, and endlessly curious… occasionally a little too fearless (as our gyprock walls can confirm).
And if we’re honest, the most incredible part isn’t the tricks - it’s watching her light up. Seeing her find something she loves this much, this early, and throw her whole heart into it… that’s the real magic. We couldn’t be prouder.
