What our care assistants say

In all the 30 years of working in the care industry I can honestly say Bluebird Care is the best company I have ever worked for. We have an amazing team who deliver exceptional care. I've gained new skills and confidence! Working for the company has definitely helped me as a person and they have also been so very supportive.

I love working for Bluebird Care because I know that more often than not I am someone’s light in their darkness, their surrogate family when they can’t see their own. It warms my heart to know that just being there makes all the difference in the world to my customers. Best decision I ever made choosing to become a care assistant.

What our customers say

The care ladies all do an excellent job and are kind and do everything with dignity, with excellent care and understanding. I could not be able without them. I call them my lovely blue angels.

Bluebird Care West Dorset

Excellent service from start of care to date of death of my Dad. The staff were amazing. The care, not just for Dad, but the whole family was just perfect. As a senior nurse, my standards are high and they were not only met but exceeded. The fast track team training is evident. They all became like family. We laughed and cried together with the carers. Caught one of them even doing a dance with him to 50's music. Literally angels work for Bluebird. We thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

Bluebird Care Sheffield

I have been delighted with the service my 91-year-old Mum receives from Bluebird Care. There has been really good continuity of care and the two carers who mostly come are both kind, committed and reliable. Having had them visiting for more than 18 months now, they are starting to feel like part of the family. My Mum likes them and feels safe with them - they make a big difference to her quality of life and are helping to keep her as well as possible.
