Meet the team

I started working in care 7 years ago. During this time I have held various positions from a carer to field care supervisor. I joined Bluebird in January 2022 I was promoted in in February 2022 to a Support Supervisor. My role involves supporting the staff to deliver the best level of care we can. Carrying out spot checks and medication observations on the staff.

I am also undertaking a 'Train the Trainer' course and will become part of the training team. This is something I’m very interested in and beleive I can apply my past experience in care and training to help deliver a best-in-class level of service to custmers and staff.

"I have worked in care for 25 year and joined Bluebird Care in January 2022 as a Carer. Shortly after I was promoted to a Support Supervisor which enables me to use my experience and knowledge to support the company, customers and care staff. Part of my role is to go out into the community to deliver the best care I can to our customers as well as supporting our care staff to do that same. Being out and delivering care means that I can then reevaluate care plans, make them more in-depth and person centred."

"I have been a carer at Bluebird Care for nearly 7 years, part-time at first then I finally decided to go full-time last year. I would like to think I make a difference to customers lives in their own homes as I try my best to accomodate all of their needs and do things at their pace. I look forward to my visits to the customers on my regular runs. It's like visiting a friend or a family member and helping them out but in a professional and friendly way."

"I’ve been with Bluebird Care for 8 years this August and I love every second of my job. I have been in and out of the care industry since I was 16 years old and I have always returned back to caring as it's what I love to do. My favourite part of the job is meeting people, hearing my customer's stories and how everyday is different!"

"I have worked at Bluebird Care as the Accounts Administrator since July 2018 whilst working towards my Association of Accounting Technicians qualification.  My role involves the invoicing, paying suppliers, calculating wages, ordering PPE and office stationary and other office duties."

"Prior to joining the Bluebird Care Team I spent time working in Customer Service and I feel that this has also stood me in good stead for my role here, where providing the best service to our clients is of the utmost importance to us all.  I take great enjoyment and job satisfaction in my role knowing that we are providing an excellent service to our clients enabling them to stay in their own homes and providing peace of mind to their families."

"I left college with a Business Studies qualification and secretarial diploma and started working as a secretary.  I’ve worked in various industries, Construction, Real Estate, Engineering  and Retail.  I took a short work break after having my son and after trying to lose baby weight, joined a fitness class.  I loved it and trained as a fitness instructor and ran my own business for several years whilst the children were young.  It led me to leisure management in two of the leading providers of leisure in the region.

After many changes, I took a temporary secretarial job for a leading law firm – two weeks work turned into 13 years and a management role which sadly ended when I was made redundant in 2015.  I was quickly offered a management role in the care sector for Autism Care but sadly redundant again after 4 years service right at the start of the pandemic.  I worked at the 111 service during the pandemic.

My boys are grown up, one is an Officer in the Merchant Navy sailing the world on cruise ships and the other a Police Officer here in the Northumbria force.   I have a beautiful 7 year old granddaughter."
