Providing Quality Care

Bluebird Care started as a small family business in 2004, and today we are proud to be one of the largest providers of home care services across the UK. But what makes us different?

We’re committed to keeping people in the comfort of their own home, so we help with anything from everyday tasks around our customers’ homes through to complex care needs. We appreciate that every customer is different, and this is why every day will be different.

  • Promoting customer health and well-being, enabling them to live their life to the full

Your Experience and Suitability for the Care Assistant Role

It’s isn’t about previous experience. We want to ensure our customer receives the very best care and to do that we need people who are naturally compassionate, caring and patient. We want a team who genuinely cares for each of our customers as if it was their own family.

You can choose between full-time or part-time work; all you have to do is simply tell us your availability. Although we try to be flexible where we can, we do require you to be flexible with us too, that’s why we will require you to work every other weekend.

We can’t care for our customers if we don’t take care of our team so to make this possible, we offer:

  • An excellent rate of £13.20 ph. Increasing to £19.80 ph on bank holidays.
  • 45p mileage allowance
  • Travel Time at £12.60 per hour
  • 28 days holiday pro rata

  • Full training induction and a 12-week mentor
  • Ongoing training and support
  • Flexible working
  • Pension scheme
  • Smartphone technology so you can do everything at the tap of a finger
  • Free uniform

But not only that, we take care of our team throughout the year, whether it's your birthday, Christmas, awards or simply because it’s a Thursday. We’re a family and we’re here to look after you today, tomorrow and every other day after that.
