About Us

Scout is a family-owned and operated company. Mom Mimi is the founder and general manager. Grandma Ellen (2007 Employee of Year) is the lead artistic designer. Dad Pat manages the web site and photography. Daughters Stella and Flora manage quality assurance. Dog Ralph sleeps most of the time.

We decided to launch Scout after the birth of our first daughter when we discovered a dearth of clothes that were both stylish and practical. We struggled to find occasions to wear the cute outfits--we were lucky if it was just once at Grandma's house! And the practical stuff seemed so uninspired. With Scout, our goal is to create clothes that are comfortable and appealing for kids, while being fresh and interesting for parents. We call it functional fashion!
