You really can't do that much. Pick a good provider.

I'm using route53 from Amazon. It's dirt cheap and they no slouches when it comes to reliability. It's still relatively new though.

If you use route53 aren't you still storing the nameservers at Namecheap in this case, thus, not eliminating the problem since they are still part of the route?

Nope. Only problems with the root servers or Amazon would be an issue.
