Hello! My name is Rebekah Houseknecht (don't worry--it's easier than it looks: pronounced "House-neck"). I am 23 years old, a graduate of Evangel University, and currently live in Springfield, MO. I am originally from a small town called Watkins Glen located in the Western region of New York State. I first started babysitting when I was thirteen and continued regularly until I was eighteen and had to leave home for college. My babysitting during that time included: 1) occasional/date-night type care to consistent, daily care, 2) from one child to four children at a time, and 3) various ages from infants to toddlers to elementary kids. I started babysitting because it was a perfect fit: I love kids and enjoy helping other people out when they need it! I have a 2 year old nephew (and another niece or nephew on the way!). I babysit him whenever his parents need Read more and I am available. I am not afraid of dirty diapers, dirty dishes, or dirty laundry. I am a reliable and trustworthy young lady with a very strong work ethic. I have my own transportation and a clean driving record. I am willing and able to do what needs to be done and to do a great job of it! In addition to babysitting, I also have experience in working with kids around animals (dogs, cats, and horses) and kids with special needs (through a therapy center in Republic, MO). I am somewhat flexible in the area of scheduling and am not afraid of early mornings/late nights. I do currently work various shifts at my part-time job (12am-8am, 8am-4pm, or 4pm-12am), which is why I set my availability the way I did. I do have my schedule until the end of November, so feel free to contact me and ask about my availability. Thank you for reading my bio! If you have any questions for me or would like more information about my background, experience, etc. feel free to email or text me! If you would like to call, go for it; if I don't answer, just leave me a voicemail (I do check them!). Just include your name and best way to return contact. Thank you again!
