TESTAMONIALS
Koorong Books reviews for 'The Baby Who Went Straight to Heaven'
"I am writing to recommend [April] from April May Gems for her work with supporting clients practically in their home and imparting hope.
I have been working alongside [April] to support a client with cleaning, organising and general practical home support. She has not only provided a home help service for this client, but also works alongside her to support her in her own abilities and developing techniques to manage and keep on top of her home responsibilities. I have had the pleasure of hearing feedback from the client about the service and how helpful she has found it and how it has supported her to stay in her own home. [April] is a pleasure to work with and would definitely recommend her for her work in supporting clients in their home."

Review from the "April May Gems" Radio Show/Podcast
"April is simply inspiring in the words she speaks and l know her life is a testament to her faith in God.
Her ("God is like Chips") potato chips podcast is very relatable and a wonderful analogy of life’s situations. It’s so refreshing to hear the raw word of God and what God can do.
A great presenter and an inspiration to me and l am sure to many of you out there.
Please support her and the work she does. Bless you all."
Geoff from West Australia
