Dotty Anderson
Coordinator for Bluebird Care Edinburgh
Dorothy, also known as Dotty, has over 20 years’ experience in Care. She joined the sector after having her second daughter as she was looking for part-time work around family life. Her friend worked in the sector and knew from Dotty warm, bubbly and caring personality that she would be perfect. Shortly after she started as a Care Assistant and has never looked back. Over the last 20 years she’s also experienced the Supervisor and Coordinator role.
Dotty predominanely looks after our Edinburgh office, but she will assist on our Ayrshire & Glasgow South office as and when required.
Care has taught her a lot of things; a smile goes a long way, always be kind and never take things for granted.

Coordindator for Bluebird Care Ayrshire & Glasgow South
Amanda started her journey in care over 8 years ago starting out as a Care Assistant and she is now our Coordinator. While she takes ownership of Ayrshire & Glasgow South, she often spends time helping with our Edinburgh office.
She loves working in the sector as everyday is different and being able to help people remain in their own home surrounded by their home comforts is always extremely rewarding.
In her own time you'll find her spending time with family and her 3 dogs or she'll have her head buried in a book.

Field Care Supervisor for Bluebird Care Edinburgh
Ashlie joined the sector as a Care Assistant at the start of Covid and is now our Field Care Supervisor, mentoring and supporting the rest of our team. Prior to this she was a greenkeeper since leaving school so the home care sector was a new challenge for Ashlie and she's never looked back. She is currently working towards her SVQ4.
In her spare time, you'll find her doing family activities with her wee boy, Cody who is Autisitic with Alopecia. He's given her the perfect training for joining the sector.
Ashley Duncan
Field Care Supervisor for Bluebird Care Edinburgh
Ashley has been in the care sector for 12 years. She started her journey as her middle daughter was premature and required a colostomy bag along with an NG tube for feeding and lots of extra support. Ashley was given training by the hospital so that she understood how to care for her daughter and her additional needs, she enjoyed this aspect, finding it extremely rewarding.
She decided to join the care sector and began working in a nursing home as a Care Assistant whilst she did her SVQ 2 in 2015. With a wealth of experience, knowledge, and qualifications under her belt she is now working towards her SVQ 4.
In her spare time, she dedicates herself to looking after her 3-year-old cob (horse) and you'll often find her there every morning and evening. When she's not there, she's finding different activities to keep her kids entertained over the weekend.
