Meet The Team

Maria has over 30 years’ experience running several retail businesses and 20 years in property management. Whilst not specific to the home care sector, she has a wealth of experience to help support our three offices to remain high in quality, fully compliant with a little bit of fun.

Interesting fact: whilst she’s lived in Scotland since 1978, she’s fluent in Italian.

In her spare time, you’ll find her walking her dog Toby, cooking up a storm in the kitchen and spending time with her family & friends.

Andy is our Accounts Assistants and is currently completing his ACCA qualification. He is passionate about accounting, numbers and understanding how our business runs. Andy overseas the financials for Ayrshire, Edinburgh, & Glasgow South.

In his spare time he loves to travel, go for hikes with his dog and keep fit.

John has worked in the care sector for over 18 years; he has worked in private, residential and care at home. His journey started as a support worker with ILS where he progressed to senior carer.

He completed his SVQ level 3 and then moved to Hansel alliance where he worked with young adults with complex care needs. During his time here, he progressed to coordinator and later the manual handling trainer.

After that he moved on to be a personal assistant for a young man that was none verbal with complex autism, but he missed the training side, so he moved to Carewatch where he was training manager for 6 years.

He enjoys training because he feels he can give people the best knowledge and understanding to provide high-quality care. Learning from his experiences, he likes to have a laugh during training to ensure that it keeps fun to allow people to retain more.

In his spare time, he likes to play pool, clay pigeon shooting, and he does dabble in buying and selling antiques and collectables.

Lindsey joined our team as a Care Assistant after looking for home care for her mum. The way her Care Assistants looked after her mum struck a chord with her and she wanted to be able to help keep people comfortable at home. She loved making a difference in people’s lives.

She then moved into the recruitment team, helping to ensure that we recruited more quality Care Assistants into our team. Whilst in this role, she quickly found that training also excited her.

Lindsey took over our learning and development to ensure all new starters received the Bluebird Care Way training. But not only this, she ensured all our team had refresher training, so everyone was up-to-date and equipped for all situations.

As we’ve changed our Recruitment journey, Lindsey has done a full circle and gone back to her Recruitment position to ensure she can support our teams to hire the very best people. 

In her spare time you'll find her spending quality time with her family and walking her dog.

Robbie is our Chief Happiness Officer, whilst he's mainly in our Edinburgh office, he on occassion take a car drive over to Ayrshire and Glasgow South. He's a Labrador and Deerhound cross and lives with our directors; Jane and John.

His key tasks are to spread cheer through our offices. Whilst our Care Assistants make sure our customers smile, Robbie is responsible for making our team smile. He’s not exactly on the payroll, but you will find him around the office looking for treats and scratches.
