About April

I love taking care of people and helping families with their day to day needs with their loved ones. I have over 20 years of experience working in the medical field with both seniors and developmentally challenged individuals in their homes and in care home settings. I have over 5 years of hospice experience and handle each individual with the same love and compassion as I would for one of my family members. Caring for others enriches my life and the ones I'm caring for. I look forward to the smiles everyday and I take pride in the little things that make them feel comfortable while being cared for by someone who's not family.

Wonderful! Was so caring and checked in with details about my mom during care. Made sure my mom ate (one of the reasons for care).

What makes me a great caregiver is that I am compassionate and empathize with my clients. I am there to help them, YES but I want them to feel that I care about them and will be there when they need me. I became a caregiver and chose this path for myself because I know what it feels like to have no one beside me and also does my grandmother and that's why I have been by her side . Its something about putting a smile on another persons face or picking them up when they aren't feeling so well, gives me a certain type of strength and confidence knowing that I can do that for a person that needs it the most. I also take my work very seriously and I am a very reliable and flexible.

I am an energy healer and a soul midwife. I have a healing practice that provides these services, along with many others. My work as a caregiver goes hand in hand with my healing practice. As a soul midwife I assist people through the dying process, as well as life transitions. I am there for emotional, spiritual, and physical support and guidance for the dying and the loved ones. I also specialize in supporting and servicing people with dementia and their families. In addition to caring for individuals with Alzheimers or dementia, I also consult with families and caregivers on how to live and work with this disease through an approach of subtle energy, and in a way that benefits their loved one. I am empathic and intuitive and can tune in easily to the needs of others. I became a caregiver because a friend recommended the work and it turned out to be very suitable to me, naturally. I have spent most of my caregiving career working with alzheimers and dementia, as well as death and dying. Special work that I am honored to be doing.
