Rebekah was our weekly babysitter for about 6 months. She was always on-time and very reliable. Our kids really liked her. Great experience all around!

For the past 2 years, Rebekah has been babysitting for our family one evening each week for my husband and I to go on a date. She was very reliable and she arrived on time each week. She came every week with the energy and happy attitude required to care for our 4 children. My kids are very energetic and Rebekah did a great job keeping them busy and helping them stay on task. They were clean and asleep in their beds when we arrived home each week. At the end of each evening Rebekah was pleasant to talk to and would give us a recap of the night. The kids were glad to know that she would be returning to babysit the next week. We are sad to lose her to her new job in the Houston area, but our loss is you gain.

Rebekah has sat for my son for over a year. She had the task of picking up my son from preschool, feeding, bathing, potty training, playing and reading to my child - very successfully! She also handled my dogs in such a great way. She is simply wonderful - I can't say enough about her patient demeanor, multitasking ability, and great attitude.

'I think Rebekah was great because she liked to play games and she was fun. I would recommend her to other kids. Oh, and she likes pets!' - Jade, age 8 Rebekah was not only on time, but courteous and exactly what we were looking for as newbies in the Austin area. Her references could not speak more highly of her. We look forward to more opportunities to work with her as we make Austin a permanent home in the future. - A. LeDoux, mom of Jade

Rebekah has babysat for my 18 month old son a handful of times over the past year or so. She's always the first person I contact when I need a sitter—she's great with my son, always punctual and she's great about communicating quickly both before and during the job.

Rebekah did an amazing job with my 6 year old and 9 month old. It was so nice to not have to worry about my children when I am not there. My kids were taken care of and they both loved her. With my schedule changing constantly she really worked to accommodate my needs, even changing her schedule multiple times. She is great and I will definitely use her in the future!!

Rebekah watched my super energetic 21 month old son three days a week for a month and a half. Every day he spent with Rebekah was a great experience. My son loved her. She was interactive and fun! I would recommend Rebekah 100%!

Rebekah was amazing with our almost two year old. He'd never stayed home with a sitter all day and she was just wonderful. She communicated with me all day and took fantastic care of our little man. I will be using her again!!

Rebekah was very responsive while we worked out the details of her watching our 2 kiddos. We came into Austin from the Houston area so working out the logistics was a bit more complicated than usual. She watched our kiddos on Thanksgiving (taking time away from her own friends and family!) and was great with them keeping them entertained in a hotel room (which could not have been an easy task). I would recommend her to any of my friends who need a sitter and will be staying in touch with her for future visits to Austin for my little family!
