Welcome to Bluebird Care Careers in Trafford

Coordinator Lisa, has been working in the care sector for over 15 years.  She spent many years developing her skills and knowledge as a Care Assistant, before deciding to take the plunge and use her vast experience to transition into a more operational role as a Care Coordinator.

Lisa did this for several years, within a busy re-enablement provision, covering Trafford and the surrounding areas.  This was an extremely fast paced service, where she had to learn very quickly the workings of a complex rostering system and how to plan effective rotas that would often need changing at short notice. 

Part of her success in this role was being able to understand things from an operational point of view, but also from the perspective of Carers, being able to balance the two in a way that keeps both customers and carers happy.

As a Coordinator and Carer, Lisa got to know the Trafford area inside out, so has an excellent grasp of our territory.  Since starting with Bluebird Care in 2019, Lisa has taken a lead in the restructuring of our rostering model and has helped to implement our new rostering software system.

Outside of work, Lisa is a busy Mum to twins.  She enjoys watching football and rugby and likes to keep active by heading out walking.

Danielle started with Bluebird Care Trafford in 2017 as a Care Assistant, however she would often be put on to the rota to help out at the office, which gave her the confidence and experience to move in to an Administration role in due course.  As time has progressed, Danielle has relished taking on additional responsibilities including that of Accounts Assistant.   

With a previous background in customer service and hospitality, Danielle is perfectly placed to be the first point of contact for visitors to our office.

Before going on to have her son with her partner, Danielle completed a degree in Exercise, Physical Activity and Health at the University of Salford.  Whilst he was young, she returned to college and achieved a Level 3 qualification in Body Therapy, followed by an Advanced Technical Diploma in Complimentary Therapies.  As you can see, by her own admission Danielle has a thirst for learning!

Although her current role with us is quite a diversion from her original career intentions, Danielle says:

 “I love my job… it can be challenging at times, but I like to be able to improve processes and help things to become more streamlined; I find it really satisfying when I can find a resolution to a problem”.
