Meet the team

Bluebird Care Bromsgrove & Redditch is owned and led by Ranjot and Baljit Khatra, who bring with them a wealth of knowledge from their healthcare and finance backgrounds.

Having worked with patients of her own for many years as an Optometrist, Ranjot values the importance of care, communication, and professionalism, and strives to ensure that the care provided to Bluebird Care customers is of the highest quality. It is Ranjot and Baljit’s goal to ensure that Bluebird Care is the very best care provider in the local community, as well as being the best employer. 

Ranjot and Baljit’s own experience of caring for their grandparents gave them a great appreciation of the importance of carers in keeping people in their own homes. This inspired the couple to start their venture with Bluebird Care, giving them the opportunity to help others live the dignified life they deserve, and be able to stay in the comfort of their own homes. 

‘We have a strong belief in the selfless service of others and upholding the dignity and respect of the elderly and those in need of care. The values of Bluebird Care as a company fit perfectly with our own personal values, and we are thrilled to be part of the Bluebird Care family to be able to make a positive impact on the local community’

Sam joined us in 2014 as a part time carer, allowing her to start a career in care whilst still spending time with her young family. After a period of time it was obvious that her talents, along with her experience of care, would take her far. Sam has progressed within Bluebird Care from a Carer, a Co-ordinator, Lead Supervisor, Deputy Manager and now holds the Registered Manager position. 

Sam has worked incredibly hard to build great relations with Customers, Carers and the local health teams to ensure that the Customers receive the high quality care that they deserve, and continues to support the Carers to ensure they have the full training, mentoring and support needed to deliver this excellent care.

Sam is also our Mental Health First Aider, looking after the well-being of the Bluebird Care family.
