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?
Here at Bluebird Care Taunton, Mid Devon, Sedgemoor & West Somerset, we are committed to keeping people in the comfort of their own home. We began by offering home care to the elderly in our local area, and when this became a success, we expanded to include Self-employed Live-In Care. Our aim is to help people remain independent in their own homes for as long as possible, providing assistance with everyday tasks and complex care needs. We understand that each customer is unique, which is why every day will be different.
