Overall Experience
Have moved to live in care to enable my mother to remain in her home as she wishes in safety.

Intermittent visits had stopped working for her. It's ok. The cover carer after the first rotation was exceptional - but sadly not available for more than temporary cover. Expensive, but necessary.

We are happy with the service Bluebird provides. The carers are patient and friendly and have developed a caring relationship with mum. We especially like the continuity of service, so mum doesn't have to keep getting used to new people.

Overall Experience

Trust, trusting, trustworthy... Bluebird (Twickenham) have, via their wonderful carers allowed us to have trust in them, be trusting of their abilities and know that, they are all trustworthy. Now that should be enough but, Maria, Jisna, Lourdina, Joyce, Dinushi, Ramona, Kanan, Naz, Kate, Kamala, Nana, Tunde, Sheela, Chizoba, Soumya and Shimrandeep (and probably a few others I can't recall) have all been so caring and kind to my Mum and have enabled us to keep Mum at home for which I will always be so grateful. The saying goes 'be grateful for the time you have with your parents' but, we are also thankful for the time my parent has with Bluebird. They have also helped enormously in providing information on care that you just wouldn't know as a lay-carer for a loved one. So glad we chose them. Thank you. John.

Bluebird have been coming over the last 6 months to help my husband who is increasingly disabled. They are so well trained and pleasant to have coming here - not only do they do everything to help my husband but when there's time they do some ironing to help me as well. Thank you Bluebirds.

Review from Jonathan L (Son of Client) published on 12 February 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My mother has been receiving three 3 daily visits from the dedicated Bluebird Team since having a stroke last year, enabling her to stay in her own home and receiving help with both practical and care needs. Her main carer has been absolutely marvellous in all aspects of her care.

Recently she had a further bleed and after a week in hospital returned home quite weak. Bluebird were able to provide one of her regular carers to live in for a week. The care was professional at every level, we were kept updated and regular assessments on her progress given. The carer was observant with attention to detail, from calling on medical help to deal with an infection to raising the chair level, cooking favourite meals, providing conversation, encouragement and reassurance.

Overall Experience
Bluebird have done a brilliant job carring for my elderly mother after she became very ill with shingles.
She was bedridden for 2 months and had a live in carer, looking after her day and night.
This level of care was essential as she was unable to do anything for herself and it also allowed her to stay in her own home whilst she recovered.

The care give was of an exceptional level and highly professional standards.

Review from J L (Daughter of Client) published on 31 December 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Bluebird responded straight away to our request for carers to provide company to my mum at home who is living with dementia. The carers and office team are professionals and work together to respond to changing needs as they arise. A year and a half later we still have the same two carers who initially visited along with others mum has come to know. They are very kind and have become an invaluable part of daily life. We are now looking at live-in care options with Bluebird. So thankful that mum is being supported to continue doing the things she enjoys and to remain living in her own home.

Hi J L,

Overall Experience

From the moment i contacted Bluebird they were so efficient and quickly set up the care i needed for my husband. This was 24 hour care and everything worked so well. All the carers were punctual and helpful and in particular in the last week of his life the carer who was there every day and attended with compassion all the complex needs of my husband was everything i could have wished for and helped me through this sad week. Another carer looked after him at night and was there to hold his hand and calm him down when he got restive They were a team and i cannot thank them enough..

Peter Slough Job Title: Managing Director and Owner Joined: 2021
Peter Slough
Peter’s first experience of arranging care was fraught and riddled with anxiety. “Finding care at short notice and trying to work with companies with no customer service ethos was frustrating. That’s when I thought there must be a better way!” Fast forward to 2023 and with over a decade of industry experience, Peter owns and manages three London-based Bluebird Care offices.

After university he worked for an NGO in New Delhi, using his law degree to change government policy and improve lives. This passion for transformative change permeates his operation of Bluebird Care Richmond & Twickenham. “We are changing lives for the better, providing local residents the opportunity to create their very best in-home support structure, delivered by Bluebirds. Requiring care and support can make one feel quite vulnerable. Our aim is to make choosing care an empowering moment, one that unlocks positive outcomes with the ultimate goal of remaining safe and happy at home.”

With his first foray into arranging care for a family member ending in disappointment, Peter notes, “Our most important ethos is to provide professional care that keeps each customer at the heart of their service… care that we would be happy for our own families to receive. Delivering a consistently compassionate, highly skilled, professional service is why two-thirds of our new customers come to us via personal recommendation.”

Peter and his young family enjoy exploring the borough with outings including Kew Gardens in the summer and ice skating at Hampton Court Palace in the winter.

Tim Rowland-Jones Job Title: Managing Director and Owner Joined: 2021
Tim Rowland-Jones
Tim’s wealth of experience in business management informs his oversight of Bluebird Care Richmond & Twickenham. Having helmed a multi-channel retail business before opening his first Bluebird Care office, Tim says, “I don’t think many people dream of running a home care company… I certainly didn’t! But when my grandfather’s dementia worsened I became acutely aware of the need for exceptional, empathetic care. This lived experience pushed me to open my first Bluebird Care office and set the high standards we’ve maintained for over a decade.”

Insisting his colleagues are trained beyond industry standard, each Care Assistant is encouraged to develop specialisms ranging from dementia and post-op rehabilitation to Parkinson’s, MND, complex care, challenging behaviour, palliative care and nutrition and hydration. “Our aim is to match each customer to their ideal Care Assistants by personality and expertise. Whilst our customers are at the centre of what we do, our Bluebirds are the heartbeat of the company - their kindness, compassion, and professionalism set us apart.”

As the owner of three Bluebird Care offices across London and the South West, Tim can’t imagine working in any other industry. “It’s an unbeatable feeling, being involved in a local business that changes lives. My father is now receiving live-in care which has been life-changing so I am passionate about providing this service to Richmond and Twickenham residents.”

Spotting the Richmond Park deer has become a favourite pastime of Tim’s young family, as has feeding the ducks on Barnes Pond.
