Hi, we’re Claire and Zita, co-founders of Miri TV — a small, Waldorf-inspired streaming platform and production studio creating films for children.
Our dream is simple: to create wholesome, calming, and truly nourishing films for kids — a gentle antidote to the loud, fast, and often overstimulating shows that fill most streaming platforms today.
Miri TV began in Austria during the pandemic, when we were both completing our Waldorf teacher training in Vienna.
Back then, kids everywhere were spending more time on screens than ever before — and we were learning just how deeply that can affect them.
Studies link many mainstream cartoons to attention and learning disorders, sleep problems, anxiety, depression, and sensory overload.
So we asked ourselves: What if children’s media could actually support their well-being?
With that question — and a lot of late-night tea — Miri TV was born.
Together, and with guidance from a child psychologist, we began creating stories built on what’s truly healthy for children:
no violence, no fast cuts, no loud noises, no sexualized characters — just warmth, rhythm, and beauty.
And we added a touch of Waldorf magic: songs, nature, handcrafts, stories that spark imagination, and invitations to play beyond the screen.
Over the past four years, Miri TV has grown into a library of 250+ short films and documentaries in German, each about 10–20 minutes long, created to support calm focus, curiosity, and wonder.

Here’s one of our original Miri TV stories — about a family of dwarves.
You’ll also find many classic Waldorf puppet show stories, lovingly adapted into short film format.
Now, we’re ready to take the next step.
Since launching, we’ve heard from so many parents around the world asking:
“When will these films be available in English?”
With your help, we can finally make it happen.
Everything — from visuals to music — is already complete.
All that’s missing is the English voice recordings.
️ We’re raising $25,000 to hire professional voice actors and record English audio for over 50 of our Waldorf-inspired short films.
Once recorded, we’ll begin releasing these English versions through our online channels so families everywhere can enjoy them.
To say thank you:
• $10+ donation → 6 months access
• $50+ donation → 2 years access
• $100+ donation → Lifetime access
Because Miri TV is based in Europe, donations are processed in euros — but GoFundMe automatically converts your contribution, so you can donate in U.S. dollars just like any other campaign.
Every dollar goes directly toward English voice recording, helping us share these gentle, beautifully crafted stories with more families around the world.
We’re often asked if we’ll use AI voices to make this faster or cheaper — but that’s not who we are.
From our Waldorf background, we know how much the human voice carries — its warmth, emotion, and presence.
For us, it’s essential that every character is brought to life by real people — professional voice actors who embody the care and intention behind each story.
That’s the quality our viewers trust, and the standard we want to bring to English-speaking families too.
Thank you for believing in slow media, imagination, and childhood — and for helping us bring these Waldorf-inspired short films to life in English, one loving story at a time.
