Today, I am moved to share a beloved quote that lives in my heart. Seven years ago, it appeared in my inbox, a gentle reminder of the paths we cross in one another’s lives. The sender will always carry a piece of me in their thoughts.

In my journey as an educator/carer, I’ve learned that love, compassion, and patience are the quiet weights that lift our work. I am grateful to God for the chance to offer these gifts to every child I care for, including my own three boys—Macoy, Macky, and MacMac—who fill me with pride and joy as their mother.

To the person who sent that heartfelt line: thank you for your ongoing inspiration. It greets me each day as a blessing.

Today, I also recognize all my incredible colleagues and mentors. I may not name you all, but your hearts know who you are. May we continue to teach with love and compassion for every child we nurture, whether they are our own or not.

Wishing you all a peaceful and radiant International Women’s Day. 🌹🌹🌹

Happy International Women’s Day! 🌸✨🌸

Today I had the pleasure of reconnecting with Navya during a breakfast bonding. It was wonderful to see Navya again after two years. Aunty Ivy was equally delighted to be reunited with her beloved Navya, and Navya’s mum, Sheree, shared in the joy. Thank you! 🙂

Our Story

MIHVY's Family Day Care provides/caters a 24hr service (day/night care and out of home care), can do vacation and respite care Registered and Licensed under Kentish Lifelong Learning and Care since December 2012 I am Ivy Grace Davalos-Ofiaza, a Filipina and a wife to an amazing man and a busy mother of three wonderful and amazing boys. My husband Michael and I have been married for 21 years but all in all we are together for almost 28 years. He is my registered OOHC co-educator and our three boys Macoy who is 21, our twins Macky & Macmac both are 17. My boys are my inspirations and the reason why I need to put up a family day care.

We are very thankful to come in Australia, it provides us so many opportunities especially for our boys. I never thought that I can put up a service that bring outs my passion and love. I started my service 8 years ago and I know it will be a long way and learning journey in this kind of career.

From a Technical (IT/Telecoms/UPS) - Retail Service - Disability/Aged Care/Patient Care then become Early Childhood Educator, its a big change but I am happy and content on what I am doing now even though I’m just an apprentice in this career.

I never thought in my 8 years career, I had the biggest milestones as an educator becoming NT (State) Educator of the year in 2015 and 2016, 4 Regional awards for Darwin in 2015, 2016, 2018 and 2019. Nominated for 5 times (2015 - 2019) plus this year 2020 to make it 6 as an educator in Family Day Care Australia. Become an inspiration and mentor to some educators is a blessing.
