Bluebird Care Maldon

A family business, rooted in our community

My parents started Bluebird Care over 17 years ago because they wanted to bring excellent care to our local communities. I joined straight from school and worked in every role in the business before taking it on with my dad, Kevin. We chose to keep it in the family because we're passionate about care that's rooted in the place we live. If you're looking for care for yourself or someone you love, I want you to know that excellent care is out there, and so are people who truly care. This chapter doesn't have to be scary. We're with you from the very first visit through every stage of life, and our aim is simple: to enhance lives. If you're thinking of joining us, I want you to feel at home from day one. This is a career, not a job, and you can go a long way with us. Everything we do is built on our CARE values: Collaboration and Compassion, Authenticity, Respect and Responsibility, and Excellence.

Ben Gardiner, General Manager

Ben joined Bluebird Care in 2026 as our General Manager. He oversees the day-to-day running of all our offices, from Redbridge to Southend, as well as our Live-In service. Ben works hand in hand with our Registered Managers and office teams, so every customer receives care that is reliable, consistent and personal, and every Care Expert feels valued and supported. He brings a wealth of experience from the health and social care sector, where he worked with like-minded premium providers. For Ben, it's the small things that matter most: arriving when we say we will, taking time to listen, and always asking "is there anything else?"
