Meet Miss Grace
Grace Knopp is an experienced, Red Cross CPR certified nanny working throughout New England. She understands the flow of a busy event schedule and the need for children to have compassionate and trusted care on event days. After a ten+ year career of nannying and event planning, Grace is now a part time nanny during the week, and event nanny on the weekends. Not to mention a mom 100% of the time to a sweet one year old girl! Grace loves spending time at the local library, creating bespoke children’s toys and painting murals, throwing herself into a game of pretend, and singing Raffi songs.
“Grace is absolutely wonderful! She looked after our 4 month old daughter while my husband and I attended a wedding and we couldn't have asked for a better babysitter. She is incredibly organized, professional, and thoughtful in her planning. She was so kind and gentle with our daughter, and sent us little updates through the evening. We were able to relax and enjoy the wedding with our friends knowing our daughter was in good hands. We highly recommend Grace, and can't wait to have her babysit in the future!”
— Laura L.“From the start, Grace went out of her way to make sure we felt at ease leaving our daughter with her. She met with us on Zoom beforehand, and was very communicative via email in the run up to the wedding.
Grace came early to meet us at our hotel and become further acquainted with our daughter. She brought toys, books, snacks, and a little gift bag with things my daughter is still playing with even now that we’re back in the UK. The whole time we were at the wedding, Grace was keeping us updated with pics about how much fun they were having together! It really set my mind at ease. And best of all, we came home to a sleeping child!
We had a wonderful experience with Grace at Puffinry, and would highly recommend her to any parent looking for a reliable and fun babysitter for an event!.”
— Mary B.“We could not have asked for a better babysitter! From the moment Grace arrived, she was prepared with thoughtful gifts, fun toys, and snacks for our son. Her kindness, warmth, and experience were immediately obvious.
As parents, it’s never easy leaving your child with someone new, especially while attending a wedding, but she made the entire experience stress-free. Our son adored her so much that he wasn’t even sad when we left—a true testament to how engaging, loving, and fun she is.
Grace was attentive, caring, and clearly has a natural gift with children. We felt completely confident that our son was safe, happy, and having a wonderful time. We are so grateful for her help and would recommend her without hesitation to any family looking for an exceptional babysitter.”
— Ana S.“My 4 year old son and I met Miss Grace at a local story time. She always had such a kind and calm experience with her. When she told us she was going to be picking up more event sitting opportunities, we were immediately excited to work with her! We have always had such confidence leaving our guy with her and can’t wait to work with her again in the future.”
