Thank you Trevor for taking the time to write a review, it has been a pleasure looking after your wife over the years.
All the carers are very good with my husband. Both kind and gentle. My husband is happy with the care that he is receiving and he gets quite chatty with some of them (he is not chatty at the best of times). As long as my husband is happy then I am happy. We would recommend Bluebird Care to anyone. Very good service.
Thank you, Vivian, for the lovely review regarding the care your husband receives. It's a pleasure to look after him and the carers look forward to coming.
Great service. The carers are exceptional offering friendly, happy emotional services. Although my mum has limited speech they treat her as though she is a normal 59-year-old, which I now means a lot to her. The small gestures like a kiss on the forehead or a hug put a huge smile on her face and I appreciate that very much.
Thank you for your review, Shannon, we are so pleased that our care professionals are meeting all your mum's needs and putting a smile on Mum's face!
Excellent service.

Thanks to everyone at Bluebird Care Gravesham and Dartford. Nothing is ever too much trouble. Support staff in the office are always happy to help. The carers have become invaluable to me; listening, helping and putting in place whatever they can do to help both Mum and myself. The carers visiting Mum are simply the best and we thank you all.

Most of the carers are kind and friendly towards Mum. The timings are improved now and Mum is happier.
Thank you so much for your review and we are pleased to know that the timings have improved and that our care staff are kind and friendly.
I'm generally pleased with the care I receive. My carers arrive each morning on time and go through my normal routine thoroughly. They always ask if there is anything else I need and seem happy to complete any extra task such as hair wash etc. I'm pleased that recently I have received weekly rotas (emailed), as I used to do and have not been informed of changes which may not be possible. The office are always polite and helpful.
Thank you so much for taking the time to write a review regarding services received. I am really pleased that you are receiving rota's and that our care professionals are taking the time to support you with a hair wash.
Early days yet!

Sinead joined the care sector following the COVID-19 pandemic, where she has been able to put her passion for looking after people. Initially joining the team as a Care Assistant, Sinead showed so much passion and drive that she became a Care Supervisor within just three months. Sinead showed us just how well she knew her customers and her colleagues. Her organisation was amazing; it seemed only fitting to give her the role of Care Coordinator.
I joined Bluebird Care on the 8th of December 2025. I joined Bluebird because I used to work as a care assistant for a previous company a few years ago, which is where I started my career in care at the age of 18/19. I have worked in supported living for the majority of my healthcare journey, especially during COVID-19. In 2024, I joined a company that provided care to children with special and complex needs as their supervisor, which I enjoyed at the time, and I really learned a lot during my time there.
However, I missed the interaction and passion that came with providing care to the elderly. I'm grateful to Bluebird for taking a chance on me. I am now a few months away from turning 30 in August and also expecting my firstborn child in a few months, which I am excited about but also very nervous about. I am looking forward to motherhood, and I am grateful for the support system I have. I pray that God gives my husband and me the ability to raise this child in his guidance and to provide them with a comfortable life that we didn’t have growing up.
