Polite and caring staff ready to help out with whatever I needed. They were also respectful of the fact that I wish to be as independant as possible. Even if I didn't need help, it ws good to know that they were going to be calling in just in case I needed something not thought of.
Thank you so much for your kind review! We're so proud that our team was able to provide the support you needed to maintain your independence.
Brilliant, very satisfied, over the moon.
Thank you for your wonderful feedback. We're delighted to hear that you had such a positive experience with Bluebird!
D2A brilliant they get me up moving, very helpful
Hi Roy, thank you for your kind feedback. We're so pleased to hear that our D2A team have been helpful and supporting you in getting up and moving!
Kept me going when I would have caved in
Thank you so much for your kind words. We are really glad to hear that you felt supported and cared for. That's exactly what Bluebird is here for!
Very good at all issues
Hi Brenda, thank you for your feedback. I'm glad we were able to support you with everything you needed!
All staff I've met have been fantastic in supporting Mum and encouraging her to continue aking staps towards greater levels of indpendence. They have treated her with dignity, respect and patience despite her at times challenging behaviour
Hello, we are so pleased that our team have been able to support your mum and helping her build her independence. Thank you for taking the time to leave us such a lovely review.
All the enablers have been fantastic. Positive, kind, caring, diligent & great at their jobs. Mum's dignity has been preserved (as far as is possible) & I know she feels very comfortable with them. They bring a bit of brightness & energy into the house. They never rush my mum and allow her time to think. They have been very good at fitting her back brace & ensuring she is safe and secure. I wish Bluebird operated in our area for when D2A finishes - they've been brilliant. Thanks to everyone
Hello Vanessa, thank you so much for your thoughtful feedback. We are truly delighted to hear how comfortable and supported your mum has felt, and that our enablers have been able to bring kindness, positivity, and reassurance into your home.
Your staff are caring & very efficient. They have given advice & help when asked for. They are very professional I have nothing but praise for how they have treated me from coming home until today. I requested morning & lunch calls but realised lunch would not see me through to early next day so staff kindly attend to bed call with no issues.
Hello, thank you for sharing such kind words. We're so pleased to know that you've felt well supported and cared for throughout your time with us!
The staff have been very caring, cheerful & supportive. They have always taken pains to treat me with dignity and respect, and their sense of humor has been greatly appreciated. I have particularly enjoyed that some of the staff have been especially positive & encouraging towards my efforts to rehabilitate.
Hi Elizabeth, thank you so much for your thoughtful feedback. We're delighted to hear that our team's care, positivity, and encouragement have made a difference in your experience. Supporting you with dignity, respect, and a bit of humour along the way is exactly what we strive for, and we're so pleased it has helped in your rehabilitation journey!
Fantastic service - treated with incredible compassion. I didn't think Dad would accept help but was very open due to how personable and caring both of you were.
Hi Lee, thank you so much for your kind words. It means a lot to know we were able to support your dad in a way that made him feel comfortable and cared for.

Hi Valerie, thank you so much for taking the time to leave us a review. We are delighted that our team have been able to support you in such a positive way.
All the carers that have come to help me are dediated, patient and caring. They are always smart and I have had many interesting conversations. Formally with another agency now with Bluebird who took over.
Hi Ann, thank you for taking the time to leave us such a glowing review. We are delighted that you enjoy spending time with our wonderful team!
I have found Bluebird to be very efficient, have always felt at ease with all the staff who have treated me well and with dignity at all times.
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. It is lovely to hear that you felt so comfortable with our team and had such a positive experience.
Well done! I have no complaints. I find the team very helpful and understanding. 10/10.
Thank you for your kind words. We are delighted that you had such a great experience with the Bluebird Care team!
The care given has been a great help to enable me to readjust to being back at home after 6 weeks in hospital. It has been a great help to my wife to relieve her of some of the responsibility and some caring as she is very exhausted herself, not getting proper sleep at night, and being elderly. The carers have been very thoughtful and cheerful helping to boost my mood when I'm feeling low.
Hi F, thank you so much for your kind review! We are delighted that Bluebird D2A carers were able to support both you and your wife and raise your spirits during a challenging time.
I have found all carers I have met to care for my needs very competent + helpful as I am recovering. They are very professional in their care along with different tasks they have been accomplishing with me on a daily basis. All very reliable + competent.
Hi Jeanette, thank you for your lovely review! We are so pleased that your experience with the Bluebird D2A team was so positive.
My nan has received D2A three times from Bluebird Care following a hospital stay. We thought that the enablers from bluebird had a very cheerful approach & instantly made us as a family and my nan feel reassured when returning home.
The enablers were always very helpful when supporting my nan with things that she was struggling with & offering her guidance that could help ease her struggles.
Bluebird also offered my nan & us as a family tips that could help her, they was always so informative when they visited and the first day home was so organised that this massively helped my nan with transitioning back into her home.
If my nan was to require support in the future bluebird would be a company that we would enquire with to have them visit her again. I further thank all off bluebird for the help they gave my nan when she was under their service :)
Hi Caitlin, thank you so much for taking the time to leave Bluebird such a kind review. We are delighted that our Discharge 2 Assess Enablers were able to fully support your nan to be able to live back at home!
Absolutely bad experience. Had a partner whom I looked after 24/7. Bluebird Care took control completely, albeit they only visited her two hours per day, then sent police to the house 4 times on the assumption of domestic abuse, then railroad her out of her comfortable home and into a care home in Taunton where she is in tears and anxiety due to the interference of her personal life. She is now isolated from friends and family. She is now due to go to a nursing home whereby Bluebird Care will have no input, thank god.
We take all feedback seriously and are committed to providing the highest level of care and support to our customers. As Care Experts, our role is always to provide compassionate and professional care, and we must clarify that our actions were taken solely in the best interests of the vulnerable...
All carers are very nice and very experienced. Look after my husband brilliantly. Took good care and made the experience really good. Would make sure this service is kept going. Cannot fault and they loved the cat.

Meet the Team (4)
My name is Ben Sellick and I am the Registered Manager for Bluebird Care in Taunton and Mid Devon.
At the age of 19 with the encouragement of my late Mum, I joined a local care home as a Care Assistant. I have worked in a variety of roles within care over the last 18 years.
I have spent over half my time with Bluebird Care as a Manager and have had the privilege to support and upskill my team to share the same passions and values.
In my spare time, I am a children’s entertainer and joined the West Somerset Magic Society.
I have found real meaning in being able to link my skills and experiences across all age groups.
I take great pride in representing Bluebird Care- Taunton & Mid Devon. It has been a huge pleasure for the last 10 years and hope it is many more to come.
I joined the Bluebird Care Team in October 2021 when I moved to Somerset from Bournemouth.
My role is all about support. Support for the Care team out in the field and most importantly to our customers. I love my job and nothing makes me happier than making sure that our customers get the best care possible. I am proud to be part of a team that ensures that our customers can live the life they choose, in their own homes and get the support that they need.
In my free time, I love shopping, travel and the theatre.
I have worked on and off in the care sector since I was 18 years old, I had a long break when I had my children as I believed that I couldn't be a good carer and a good mother, as there's just not that much care in me to give.
However, once my children had reached secondary school, I came back to the thing I love the most.
I have always worked in the community, supporting people from all walks of life to be as independent as possible and to live fulfilling lives within their own homes. I find this incredibly rewarding, as each day is different, and I really feel the huge impact of delivering person-centred care can make on an individual's life.
Use your smile to change the world, don't let the world change your smile.
Before working for Bluebird Care, I was new to care, although having worked with clinical exercise populations in previous workplaces, I had experience with Reablement. I started with Bluebird Care as a reablement assistant and found I had a passion for the work I was carrying out.
Supporting patients who have been discharged from the hospital, and seeing their progress as a direct result of the team's input, made me feel part of a vital service improving people’s quality of life. From my role as a Reablement Assistant, I progressed to a team leader role, from the Discharge to an assessment manager role, then to the Business Development Manager role. Although my role has changed, at the core of all the work I do remains a passion for making a difference in people’s quality of life, which is what motivates me day-to-day
