Mama Mirabelle's Home Movies is an animated educational wildlife children's television series. The live action footage comes from the BBC Natural History Unit archives, as well as the National Geographic Society. The series originally aired on CBeebies in the UK and was created by Douglas Wood, who is also the author of the companion children's picture book When Mama Mirabelle Comes Home, published by National Geographic Books. A total of 52 episodes were produced; in the United States, they were packaged as 26 half-hours.

In the American version, all of the animals except Karla and Bo have American voices. Vanessa Williams is the voice of Mama Mirabelle in the US, and Floella Benjamin is the voice for Mama Mirabelle in the UK.

The series is produced by UK animation studio King Rollo Films, whose other shows include The Adventures of Spot, Discovery Kids' Paz, the Nick Jr. block and Noggin's Maisy, Sprout's Poppy Cat and Mr. Benn. The show's opening theme was written by Lester Barnes (the composer for Horrid Henry, Me Too!, Paz and Urmel).
