Scott McGillivray currently has two children with his wife, Sabrina. Their oldest daughter Myah was born in January 2012 while their youngest daughter Layla was born in October 2013. As mentioned, fans of the contractor got to know the McGillivray family through "Moving the McGillivrays," which provided insight into the household's busy life. During the show, Myah and Layla were four and two years old.

While McGillivray's daughters don't make as many appearances on his current HGTV series, fans can still catch the family on his Instagram page. For example, the reality show host posted a picture with his wife and kids for Mother's Day, captioning the photo, "Happy Mother's Day to all the hard-working moms out there. I am especially grateful for the moms in my life who have taught me so much and set an example for my girls. Moms are the best!"

In April of 2023, McGillivray also shared some Instagram photos of him and his two daughters gardening, showing off some of their fresh produce in the process. In the photos, the family holds their harvested squash and zucchini especially close to the camera to give the impression of super-sized crops, proving that his daughters really take after their father.
