My experience with Bluebird Care has been very positive. They are all polite and efficient workers. They spend the time to engage with my father as well as do the tasks. Also, Bluebird are excellent with communication over the phone and in person. Also, in regard to email correspondence, excellent service

Bluebird Care has been wonderful to my dad, who is 93. It has taken us time to introduce him to care as he is very independent but it is peace of mind for me and he is very happy and comfortable with the carer who not only gives him support but is already a friend. Nothing is too much trouble and he
is treated with dignity and allowed to remain as independent as possible.

The service we receive from Bluebird Care is fantastic. All the carers are so friendly, helpful and treat Mum in such a dignified and caring way. As a family, we have complete peace of mind that Mum is in safe hands. All of the office team are quick to respond to emails if we have any questions. The
new online app is also great as I can see any information I need if I'm away from home.

Overall Experience  Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5

We have been working with Bluebird Care Aylesbury now for a couple of years and have found both the management team and the care team members very pleasant and helpful to work with.
They have been very accommodating to changes as the needs of my mother and her partner have flexed and changed over a
period of time and have always maintained regular reviews with both myself and my mother and her partner to make sure they get the most appropriate level of care to their needs.
On top of that, the carers that visit are always very friendly and helpful with some of the more regular team members becoming fond friends of my mother and her partner.
Thanks to all the team at Bluebird.

The carers who look after my dad are very kind and considerate. The office team promptly deal with any concerns and feedback. Bluebird Care has supported us in looking after my dad at home over the past 4 years and for this, we as a family, are very grateful. I would recommend this company to others
seeking care for their loved ones.

I was fortunate for the hard work Bluebird Care put into pairing me up with my regular carer. he is ideal for my needs, always showing me courtesy when providing support. I need to do regular things such as shopping and other occasional things such as posting or collecting something. I get things done
with him in the background if I need help or advice so have to say my quality of life is so much better with the support I get from Bluebird Care.

Bluebird Care Aylesbury have been visiting my dad once a day to assist him with washing/dressing etc. in the morning to take some of the pressure off my mum. We have been very impressed with the service they provide from the very first assessment visit. The girls in the office are always very helpful
and accommodating if we have to alter times for other appointments etc. Everyone one of the carers has been excellent. My dad likes to chat and they are all really friendly as well as being proficient at what they do. Bluebird touch base with my parents regularly to make sure they are still happy with everything. It is a relief to us as a family to know that he is in such good hands.

I was pleasantly surprised by the respect that all the staff gave me from the first day I employed them. Usually, they keep to the timetable but occasionally staff have been late to cover sickness of a fell staff member. They usually are able to cook the food but on occasion, I have directed them to
us the over or microwave usually the staff member has been very helpful even when I needed a check on my approved Covid cover.
They have been very helpful regarding tests for Covid, I was pleasantly reassured how the staff waited for my test and reported the result to the management.

Bluebird provided personal care to my mother in law for 5 years. They also carried out chaperoned outings when her son and I were on holiday. The care management team were extremely dedicated to providing a very good service and the team of carers attending my mother-in-law carried out their duties
to a good standard and were vigilant in noticing any problems regarding her health and reporting back to the office who always took the appropriate action to remedy the problem. I am quite confident that the care provided to my mother-in-law helped her to be able to live independently until she had to go into a care home at 101 years old. A big thank you to all at Bluebird.

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 4.771 for Bluebird Care Aylesbury is calculated as follows: ( (66 Excellents x 5) + (15 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 83 Ratings = 4.771

  • If a Home Care Provider does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
