We’re on a Mission to Put Families First
What is the Ivy Mission?
MyBabbo’s Ivy Mission is an approach to business that puts families first and at the core of our decision-making. It is a desire to build a culture that seeks to leave a lasting impact on the communities we serve. For us, this begins with putting families first – those we employ and those we work with. We provide employment opportunities to moms who are seeking flexiblework hours so that they can balance the needs of their families.

Meet Ivy
The Ivy Mission is a company belief inspired by Ivy Glen, a cherished family friend who passed away in March 2012. Ivy was a single mother who, in spite of many challenges, always put the needs of her family first and brought joy to all she touched. She lived an inspiring life that was a testament to family, faith, and serving in the community. Ivy affirmed our belief that every story matters and has a purpose. She taught us that we are here to live in community with one another and that everyone has something to offer.
It is appropriate that her name was Ivy, as, like an ivy plant, we want to spread hope and inspiration to those we serve.
What Impact has
the“Ivy Mission” had?
Our Ivy Mission has created many jobs for moms and women at seasons in their lives where they need to have a flexible work-life balance and the ability to work remotely. This has included providing jobs for some who have been on government assistance and has helped them build confidence and get back into the workforce. One of our biggest blessings has been having the privilege to walk alongside Portley, Ivy’s daughter, after her passing. Portley worked for MyBabbo as a Legacy Creator to assist with her bills while she attended the University at Brock. She went on to get her Master of Political Science at the University of Saskatchewan and now works for the government in Toronto.
We are so proud of everything Portley has accomplished, and we know Ivy would be, too!
Love from our Partners & Families

You inspire me by your commitment to excellence and you strive to help me get to my best work. You are not afraid of any obstacle and I believe I have grown in my willingness to tackle problems because I have seen you conquer them again and again. You have also been so generous with inviting me into other aspects of the business and allowing me to test out my skill set.What I love most about you is that you are an irrepressible optimist! You make me feel like I can do anything! I am so excited for what MyBabbo has and will become. I am also excited for who I am becoming working for you. I’m learning new design programs, working through conflict, pushing through problems and all of it is so fun and exciting with you behind me always there for support.Just wanted to let you know what an amazing job you have done leading this company!
