At Milestone Minis, our mission is simple, showing up for people when it matters most.

While our miniature horse visits bring joy to birthdays, weddings, and special events, they are also what make our deeper mission possible.
Through these bookings, we are able to support children and families who are walking through grief, loss, or illness. In those moments, we offer something gentle and steady, a sense of comfort, and a reminder that they are not alone.
Elliott, our miniature horse, has a unique way of doing just that. His calm, intuitive nature creates space for trust, softness, and even small moments of light during heavy seasons. This is the heart behind Milestone Minis.
Your support makes a difference
Our work is made possible through events and the generosity of our community. Donations help us continue offering grief services at no cost to families, ensuring care is always accessible when needed most.

Milestone Minis is rooted in caring for others
After 40 years as an oncology nurse, including eight years in grief care, Annie has walked alongside individuals and families through life’s most meaningful and challenging moments. Those experiences shaped a deep understanding of what people need most, comfort, connection, and to feel truly seen.
What began as a dream has come to life through Milestone Minis. Together with Elliott, Annie creates meaningful experiences that bring comfort, joy, and connection in both celebrations and difficult seasons.

Care You Can Trust
Annie brings a unique blend of clinical expertise and compassionate support, backed by her background as a registered nurse, grief educator, and Certified Hospice and Palliative Nurse, CHPN.
