About April
Experience: 10 yrs
Hello! My name is April & I am excited to apply and be considered for your job posting. I'd describe my personality as very patient, nurturing and supportive. I am a mother of 2 teenage daughters and work as a respite care provider. I have training and personal experience working with children with Autism, ADHD & varying medical conditions. I enjoy working with kids because they bring so much joy to my life. I have multiple references from many of my respite families. I love the kids I provide care for as if they were my own. I work for Childcare Aware of America providing respite care for EFMP families at Scott Air Force Base. In my spare time, I like to spend time with my kids, garden, cook and working with my laser business, Digital Spark Laser. Thank you for considering my application. Please see my reviews and feel free to reach out to any of my respite families for references Kindest Regards, April

I can't express enough how grateful I am for April R. and the incredible care she provides for my children. Her ability to connect with my son, who has severe autism, is nothing short of remarkable. April's expertise and understanding of the unique needs of disabled kids truly shine through in everything she does. It’s heartwarming to see how she tailors her approach to suit his individual personality and challenges, creating a nurturing environment where he feels safe and valued. Her patience, compassion, and dedication have made a profound difference in our lives, and I feel so fortunate to have her support. Thank you, April, for being such a wonderful advocate and caregiver for my son!
