We were so moved by this beautiful message from Charlotte, a registered nurse, who shared how our Daisy stepped in during a very stressful moment at Avalon Airport — calming her patient and helping them safely on their way. 🌼🌼

It’s moments like these that remind us why we do what we do — bringing care, patience, and kindness to every journey. 🚙💙

Our team always goes the extra mile to make every trip safe, caring, and comforting — whether it’s across Victoria or interstate.

Thank you, Charlotte, for your kind words and for trusting Driving Miss Daisy to be there when it mattered most. 🌼

Today we celebrate the strength, wisdom and spirit of our older community on the International Day of Older Persons.

Every day, we’re inspired by the incredible stories, warm smiles and kind hearts of the people we support. From quiet chats during a drive to witnessing the joy of reconnecting with old friends, it’s a privilege to be part of their journey.

Older people bring richness to our communities through their life experience, resilience and humour. This day is a reminder to honour their contributions and ensure they remain valued, supported and connected.

Let’s continue to build a world that celebrates ageing with dignity and joy. 💛

This week, we had the opportunity of supporting some of our very special young clients and their families. From helping them get settled in the car, to walking beside them into the hospital, we made sure they felt safe, comfortable, and cared for every step of the journey.🌼☺️🚙

Because for us, it’s never just about the drive – it’s about being there with compassion and making life a little easier for those who need it most. 💛

🚙🌼🌞 School Holiday Adventure at Werribee Zoo! 🦒🦏🦓

During these school holidays, Driving Miss Daisy Melton South had the absolute pleasure of taking some of our wonderful clients on a fun-filled day trip to Werribee Open Range Zoo!

The smiles were as big as the giraffes, and the joy was contagious as we explored the open plains, came face-to-face with rhinos, zebras, meerkats, and so much more. 🐾

It was a great opportunity for the kids (and grown-ups!) to learn, laugh, and connect with nature during their break from school.

We're so grateful to be part of these special moments. 💛

Check out some snapshots from our wild day below!

💙 Supporting Our Client with Care and Comfort 💙

Today, we had the honour of driving one of our lovely clients — along with her family — to her aunt’s funeral at the beautiful St Catherine Greek Orthodox Church in Melbourne.

It was a day filled with emotion, and we were grateful to be there to support them. Our spacious van meant the family could travel together, offering comfort and togetherness during such an important time.

Our daisy vehicle helps make moments like this a little easier — with room, dignity, and care every step of the way.

Our thoughts are with the beautiful family. 💐

One of the questions we hear from NDIS participants the most is, “I receive NDIS support payments. Can I book Driving Miss Daisy for my journeys?”

Absolutely! If you are an NDIS participant or work with an NDIS support coordinator, you can book Driving Miss Daisy for all your journeys. For your peace of mind, we’ll ensure all the necessary NDIS details are covered so that your trips are eligible under your support payments.

At Driving Miss Daisy, we’re more than just transportation. We are about creating memorable experiences with love and care. Whether it’s a trip to an appointment, a fun day out or an event, our trained companion drivers ensure every journey is comfortable, safe and full of warmth and laughter.

By supporting community engagement and reducing appointment cancellations, we help you make the most of your NDIS funding, fostering independence and creating happy memories along the way.
