About April

Experience: 20 yrs

My commitment to caregiving began with my grandfather, "Pa." He built his own home and was determined to live there as he aged, so I did everything in my power to help him remain there, caring for him until he passed. I've never forgotten how much that meant to him. I bring that same understanding and determination to every family I work with. Since 2013, I've kept doing for other families what I did for Pa: helping older adults stay happily and safely in their own homes. In addition, I bring a natural gift for compassionate advocacy, which has become the core of my work. With a medical assistant background, I'm comfortable working with clients who have complex medical conditions and coordinating care with doctors' offices and other healthcare professionals. I get to know each client quickly: how they like things done, what matters to them, and what they expect, and I adjust seamlessly to each client, their home, and their routines.

April was an incredible blessing to our family during a very meaningful and difficult season. As a caregiver for my mother, she went far beyond basic responsibilities—she built a genuine, caring relationship with her that brought comfort and joy each day. April consistently ensured my mom was well cared for, from preparing meals and keeping the home clean to making sure she was comfortable and at ease. She also reliably assisted with transportation to doctor’s appointments, always handling everything with professionalism and compassion. What truly set April apart was her kindness and positive energy. She brought warmth into my mother’s home, and that meant more to us than words can express. Even after my mother passed, April continued to support our family by helping organize and clear out her condo, which was an enormous help during a difficult time. I’d recommend April to anyone looking for a dependable, compassionate, and dedicated caregiver. She made a lasting impact on our family, and we are deeply grateful for her care.
