Meet The Team

Jane Perry

Director of Bluebird Care Ayrshire, Edinburgh, and Glasgow South

Jane Perry started her home care journey with her husband, John back in 2008 when she purchased Bluebird Care Edinburgh. She has since opened offices in Glasgow South and Ayrshire.

Over the years, Jane has worked tirelessly to ensure she has a good team around her with the same passion for delivering high-quality, person-centric home care.

She got involved in the care sector as when she was looking for home care for her grandmother in Glasgow in 2008. She was appalled at the lack of knowledge, services, and general attitude of the companies she contacted. This set off a ‘light bulb’ moment.

After extensive research, she chose Bluebird Care as they shared her ethos of providing good old-fashioned service alongwith the ongoing support required to get her business up and running.

With Jane’s strong leadership together with her management team, she ensures that the interests and well-being of all customers and her team are met. Working with multidisciplinary teams and integrating with other leaders in the Social Care sector, Jane is as driven now as she ever was, to deliver the best, home care service possible.

Outside of work, Jane loves listening to music, good food and wine, spending time with her family and let’s not forget taking her dog (and best friend), Robbie for a walk on the beach.

John Perry

Director of Bluebird Care Ayrshire, Edinburgh, & Glasgow South

John has worked in customer facing roles for over 30 years as a Territory Manager with Tennent’s and other account management roles and is acutely aware of the importance of good customer service.

With John’s experience, you’ll normally find that he’s the first point of contact when someone is looking for care for themselves or a loved one. He is friendly, knowledgeable, and passionate about providing a quality customer service experience. He always takes the time to understand the customer’s needs, ensuring they have all the information required to make an informed decision of who cares for either themselves or a loved one.

Outside of work, John loves spending time with his family. He has 2 boys; Nick and Adam along with 2 granddaughters; Eva and Alyssa. He’s a long-suffering Hibs fan and a very competitive 8 handicap golfer. You’ll also find him listening to 70s & 80’s soul music.

Nicole Clarke

Marketing Manager for Bluebird Care Ayrshire, Edinburgh, & Glasgow South

Nicole found her passion for marketing while studying Psychology at University. She was a Store Manager, managing a team of 16 with key targets to meet. To achieve this, she found ways to market her store to increase footfall and therefore sales and that’s where she found her spark. 


She has experienced marketing across many different sectors, including hospitality, legal services, financial services and now the home care sector. When Nicole decided to try something new, she thought most about what resonated with her and how she could make a difference. Nicole’s childhood was surrounded by watching her mum and grandma working in care homes and often spent time there even from a baby making people smile and laugh. Along with this she helped raise her disabled brother, given her wealth of knowledge and experience in the home care sector, she felt it was only right to be able to give back by helping to recruit and market home care services.


In her spare time, you’ll often find Nicole hosting family and friends so that she can spend quality time with them. Good food, good wine, and long walks along with family and friends are all Nicole needs.

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.

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.
