Accessibility Statement for Little Milo’s Closet
Effective date: 10/28/25
Last updated: 10/28/25
Little Milo’s Closet is committed to providing a website that is accessible to the widest possible audience, regardless of technology or ability. We aim to conform to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 Level AA and are actively working toward WCAG 2.2 Level AA.
Our commitment and scope
This statement applies to content at littlemiloscloset.com and the shopping experience powered by Shopify. While some functionality and content may come from third-party apps, embeds, or partners, we work to ensure accessible alternatives or reasonable accommodations when issues arise.
Standards we follow
WCAG 2.1 AA (target conformance) and ongoing work toward WCAG 2.2 AA
Practices that support ADA Title III (places of public accommodation)
Semantic HTML, proper headings/landmarks, text alternatives, form labels, visible focus indicators, keyboard operability, and sufficient color contrast
What we’re doing
We’re integrating accessibility into design, development, and content processes:
Design and content
Use of clear headings, list structures, descriptive link text, and meaningful alt text for non-decorative images
Color contrast checks for text, icons, and UI components
Plain-language product descriptions and error messages
Code and interaction
Keyboard navigation and visible focus styling for menus, drawers, dialogs, and carousels
ARIA used judiciously where native semantics aren’t sufficient
Forms with associated labels, instructions, and error identification/aria-live announcements
Testing and review
Regular automated scans (e.g., axe, Lighthouse)
Manual keyboard-only reviews (no mouse)
Spot checks with screen readers (NVDA on Windows, VoiceOver on macOS/iOS)
Issue tracking and prioritized remediation during release cycles
Compatibility
Our site is designed to work with:
The two most recent versions of Chrome, Safari, Firefox, and Edge
Current iOS and Android browsers
Common assistive tech combinations (e.g., NVDA + Chrome/Firefox, VoiceOver + Safari)
Some older browsers or unsupported OS versions may not provide the best experience.
Known limitations (and our plan)
We’re actively improving the following areas:
Legacy media: Some older images may still need improved alt text—auditing and fixes are ongoing.
Embedded third-party widgets/apps: Accessibility can vary; we request fixes from vendors and provide alternative contact or purchase paths when possible.
Video/captions (if added): New videos will include captions; we’re retrofitting older assets as feasible.
If you encounter an issue not listed here, please let us know so we can fix it.

If you are unsatisfied with our response, you may request escalation to our accessibility lead at the same email above. We take all complaints seriously and will review, prioritize, and communicate a remediation plan.
Platform and third-party services
Little Milo’s Closet runs on Shopify. We select themes and apps with accessibility in mind and engage vendors when issues are identified. While we don’t control all third-party code, we will provide assistance or accessible alternatives when feasible.
Continuous improvement
We review this statement and our accessibility roadmap at least annually or after major site updates. Our team receives periodic training and guidance on inclusive design and content.
Request content in an alternative format
If you need product info, order instructions, policies, or receipts in an alternative format (e.g., large print, plain text, or accessible PDF), email creationsbymelodee@gmail.com and we’ll provide it as soon as possible.
Thank you for helping us make Little Milo’s Closet welcoming and usable for everyone.
