About April

What makes me a great caregiver is being attentive to my clients care, and I pay close attention to detail. I started caregiving at 11 years of age caregiving for different ones in the church I attended, and they would tell me how good of a job I would be doing at that age and it has always stuck with me. I have worked several different jobs, however I always have a client that I am doing caregiving for. My enjoyment comes from fulfilling my purpose in life, as well as learning from those that that we here before me. I love sitting and hearing thier stories about life. My clients that I have had lately, has told me how when I come in and so upbeat, they are able to be motivated by that . I would have the pleasure of seeing that through how the would do more daily all because I was there with them motivating them . They would tell me how they did not feel like it or would be to depressed to do something , and I actually watch them come out of the stupper and get busy.

I'm a very patient and caring person, I work with althemizer & dementia clients the most but have worked with so many different clients with different disabilities, I love doing this kind of work it gives me substance and I love being there for people or lending a helping hand, I've worked in this field since 2003, starting with children then with seniors, I have my drivers license, a car and insurance, have pass the livescan, if clients are able I like taking them out and doing things with them movie, shopping or whatever the client feels they would like to do or go. I'm very trustworthy and hate being late, sometimes I might get there a lot early but will be there with a smile and ready to help
