Nanny of the Month: Rebekah Vande Velde

Presented by Choose The Right Nanny

We are thrilled to celebrate Rebekah Vande Velde as Choose The Right Nanny’s Nanny of the Month! Rebekah is an exceptional individual whose warmth, talent, and unwavering dedication to children and families make her incredibly deserving of this recognition.

With over a decade of experience working with children of all ages, Rebekah brings a unique blend of creativity, intelligence, and heartfelt care to everything she does. Her background is as dynamic as it is inspiring—she’s served as a homeschool teacher, nanny, coach, tutor, fencing instructor, chef, small business owner, and so much more. Her well-rounded expertise has made a lasting impact on every child and family she’s supported.

Rebekah is known for her joyful spirit and nurturing presence. Whether she’s sewing, walking her dog, camping, roller skating, or playing guitar, she brings the same energy and love into her work. She has experience working with children with special needs, twins, and large families, and her ability to adapt to diverse needs is one of her greatest strengths.

Currently, Rebekah is pursuing a degree in Computer Information Systems through Arizona State University’s W. P. Carey School of Business—showcasing her continued drive to grow and challenge herself in new ways.

Here’s what families and colleagues have shared about Rebekah:

Current Family:

 “Rebekah has been a wonderful part of our family, bringing dedication and care to every single day. She’s incredibly organized and reliable—managing our busy extracurricular schedules, cooking delicious meals, and helping keep our home running smoothly. She’s also a great communicator and adapts with ease to our changing routines. She even helped our daughter tackle big projects like organizing her toys and supported her emotionally along the way. Thanks to Rebekah, we’ve been able to sit down for family meals again—even on our busiest days. We are so grateful for her presence and the care she brings to our lives.”

Boerne Family:

 “Rebekah was hired as our children’s teacher and did it all—teaching curriculum, planning activities, cooking, organizing, and even teaching our kids how to sew! She’s creative, focused, and incredibly reliable. A true professional in every sense.”

Mentor and Business Owner:

 “Rebekah began as my fencing student and later became my assistant coach. She eventually took over my program and ran her own club—teaching children and adults not just fencing, but also discipline, patience, and teamwork. She’s upbeat, compassionate, and brings professionalism and joy into every setting.”

When asked about her experience working with Choose The Right Nanny, Rebekah shared:

 “I love working for Choose The Right Nanny because I get to make a real difference while being part of a caring, down-to-earth team. Merrilan truly focuses on finding the right fit for every nanny, child, and family, which helps build strong, lasting connections that benefit everyone. Each day feels meaningful, and it’s amazing knowing we’re helping kids thrive in the right environment.”

Rebekah, thank you for everything you do and for the kindness, skill, and heart you bring to your work. We are so lucky to have you on our team.

Congratulations, Rebekah!

With appreciation,
