Professional situation
She started writing poems early, and her first poems were in German. Thanks to her husband, she learnt Serbian and started writing poetry in Serbian. She also started translating from German into Serbian and vice versa.
She translated folk poems from the Kosovo cycle into German. She translated around thirty Serbian folk poems into German and published them in Viennese magazines Parlamentär and Ost-Westliche Rundschau. She collaborated with the following Serbian magazines: Bosanska vila (The Bosnian Fairy), Nova Iskra (The New Spark), Srpska Domaja (Serbian Homeland), Brankovo kolo (Branko's Circle), as well as calendars Orao (The Eagle), Kosovo, etc. starting from 1901.
Zmaj was a good friend of hers. He translated one poem she wrote from German into Serbian and published it in the magazine Srpska Domaja. Milena Miladinović wanted to repay him, so she erected a monument in his honour in Ruma.
