About April

Experience: 15 yrs

COVID-19 vaccinated

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 like working with kids because they are the heart of a community and the light of their family's lives. I have solid references from many of my families that I have worked for as a respite care provider. I love the kids I provide care for as if they were my own. I'm looking for a job that allows for scheduling that I can depend upon for my monthly budgeting and allows me to share my teaching skills. 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. One thing you should know about me is I have 145 hours of college credit in my studies of Applied Behavior Analysis. I also receive ongoing trainings and certification for my work as a respite care provider.
