About Bluebird Care

Bluebird Care was established in 2004 with a clear and impactful mission: to deliver high-quality care that enables individuals to remain in the comfort of their own homes. The company was founded by Paul and Lisa Tarsey, who, driven by the need for more flexible and personalized care options, transitioned from residential care services to a home care model that prioritizes the customer. This approach focuses on providing dignified, respectful care tailored to individual needs while supporting independence and overall quality of life.

The first Bluebird Care office opened In Petersfield, Hampshire, offering domiciliary care services to individuals needing assistance with daily activities, including personal care, household tasks, companionship, and specialist care for conditions such as dementia. The success of this person-centered approach led to the expansion of the business through a franchise model, allowing locally owned offices to deliver the same high standards of care within communities across the UK.

Today, Bluebird Care operates over 220 franchise offices across the UK and Ireland, making it one of the largest home care providers. While each office is independently owned and operated, all remain united under the Bluebird Care brand and ethos: to provide exceptional, tailored care that meets the unique needs of each customer.

Our primary focus is on providing exceptional care to our clients in the comfort of their own homes, allowing them to maintain their independence for as long as possible. Care Assistants play a vital role in assisting customers with personal care tasks such as bathing, dressing, medication reminders, and household chores, while also providing valued companionship.

A prerequisite for all our applicants is having previous care experience in the UK, possessing a full UK driving license, and having access to their own vehicle for both business and personal use, as our domiciliary care company requires traveling throughout the local community to visit our clients.
