About Bluebird Care

Written by the company

Since 2004, Bluebird Care has been here to keep loved ones where they feel safest: at home. We started as a family business, and today we’re honoured to be a trusted partner in home care for families across the UK through our network of over 200 local teams.

Our purpose is simple yet profound: we’re here to enrich the lives of those we care for—helping them stay independent, maintain dignity, and enjoy the everyday comforts of home. Our team of compassionate professionals is dedicated to making this possible, day in and day out.

At Bluebird Care, we know how hard it can be to balance care with life’s many demands. We understand the emotional weight that comes with aging, illness, or disability, and we’re here to provide support that feels not just capable, but caring.

We offer a wide range of services, from personal care and companionship to dementia support and end-of-life care—always tailored to the unique needs and wishes of each person we care for. And we’re here for families, too, helping lift the responsibility from your shoulders so you can focus on being the son or daughter, rather than the caregiver.

Bluebird Care stands out because we genuinely listen. We make sure that every service is crafted around the people we serve. With us, you can trust that your loved ones are in gentle, reliable hands, so you can have peace of mind and they can have the comfort of home.

I love working for Bluebird Care…

I love working for Bluebird Care because it’s care with real heart. Every day I get to support people in their own homes and help them keep their independence and dignity. The team at Bluebird Burton backs you up, the training is excellent, and you’re treated like family, not just a staff number. Knowing I’ve made someone’s day better is what makes me proud to be here.

From the beginning of starting with Bluebird Care as a carer in 2022, I can say that this is an excellent company to work for. The office team are working closely with all the carers and are very supportive with any issues that could arise.

Thank you so much

A huge thank you to you for the care and support you gave us to enable my Dad to get to my son’s wedding last week.
Nothing was too much trouble and having him there meant so much to us all. In particular we want to thank Ambreen for the kindness and care she showed Dad on lead up and on the day. An incredibly special day for us all and he talks about it all the time. Thank you!

Bluebird has been providing care for my mum for about 7 months now and she has progressed to needing a full time carer.
She now has a live in carer who we are very happy with.

Wonderful carers

The carers from Bluebird that looked after my father were excellent and he responded well building relationships with them.
It was a very turbulent time for us with several long hospital stays and discharge dates changing.
This made it difficult to plan and arrange care with any certainty, but each time Bluebird reacted well and found good care when we needed it.
I learnt to trust them to find care, although the communication of the detail to us was sometimes very last minute.

We are glad to hear your father built such strong relationships with our carers. We note your feedback on last-minute communication and will take it on board.

The booking process helped us to learn what might be needed and what was best for our mum's care as John talked us through the options and what he deemed was initially needed. John showed his experience and care with how he handled our situation in a calm and productive manner and checked in with us throughout the process. We really got to see why the rating for this organisation is outstanding with all they put in place, with the transparency and also with taking the extra weight off the shoulders of the family so that micromanagement from family members isnt needed meaning you can have more meaningful relationships with your loved ones. Thanks Bluebird

Excellent care provided

Excellent care provided. Friendly and considerate carers go the extra mile and the organisation is set up very well. Good communication with us and carers very alert to anything we need to know about.
Quite expensive but worth it for the good service.

I really enjoy working for Bluebird Home Care. The company offers flexible working hours, which is especially helpful for employees with children or family commitments. It makes it much easier to maintain a healthy work-life balance.

The management and supervisors are very understanding, supportive, and always willing to help. They genuinely care about their staff and create a positive and friendly working environment.

Working in care can be challenging at times, but it is also incredibly rewarding. Knowing that you are making a difference in people's lives brings a great sense of job satisfaction.

I would highly recommend Bluebird Home Care as a supportive and rewarding place to work. I am proud to be part of such a caring, professional, and supportive team.

Working for this company has been…

Working for this company has been absolutely shocking and a complete let down of what I was expecting. I didn't even last a year before I started to feel like I was being pushed to quit my role. Being called in for things that are irrelevant constantly and for other people's mistakes, not dealing with any concerns raised properly, taking hours off me when I've asked for more, belittling me and making me feel like my presence in this company wasn't important. I never felt like I was taken seriously by majority of the staff in the office and when concerns were raised it was pushed to one side and forgotten about. One member of staff said that if anyone felt overwhelmed and needed to talk they could so I finally spoke up about how I felt and how the company was making me feel and I felt like I was being laughed at rather than being spoken to and discussing how I was feeling. Upon quitting my role i made sure that these concerns were mentioned again about how the company made me feel and yet again this was completely ignored. This company is a disgrace to work for and doesn't care about their staff whatsoever!

Excellent Home Care

We received excellent service from our first contact. Everything we needed from days and hours were possible from the outset. We liked all the carers who came promptly and were most supportive to my husband, therefore giving me the confidence to leave my him. We do not need carers any longer, but they certainly helped my husband to get back on his feet after his operation. We will miss their kind attention. However, we know that help is available should we ever need it again. We would not hesitate to recommend Bluebird Care to anyone requiring assistance.

Brilliant Bluebird Care

My Mum is 91 and lives alone in a bungalow. After trying a few options, she found Bluebird care to come and visit twice a week to help with shopping and to make her laugh. This increased to include cleaning, bed changing and transport to and from her most favourite activities. They took her out for coffee, went shopping, put lunch ready, checked on meals and were awesome at jigsaws! My mum was taken ill, the carer spotted it early and then the whole team helped both my mum and me to cope with the rapid changes to needs. They are the most amazing team. I cannot recommend the Bluebirds highly enough for every possible care need.

The day cares were good but Jacqui Harris has been an amazing live in carer for Colette. She has been gentle , gracious and very knowledgeable As Colette has become frailer and close to end of life. Jacqui visited Colette every day in hospital until her planned holiday, taking clothes and items she needed to East Surrey. Colette has been very grateful for her care and companionship over the last few months. Well done Jacqui!

All round great care from the Bluebird team in Lancaster

Very many thanks to the Caton, Lancaster team who organised a 10-day respite care package for my mum. From initial query to the final handover, everything went smoothly and was handled very professionally. A last minute change of plan was accommodated within a couple of hours and we were very happy with all the carers. I would recommend Bluebird care without hesitation. Mum felt well looked after and safe. Her meds were administered perfectly, meals were healthy, and the house kept clean. Nice work Bluebird !
