hi, i'm jamie. (he/him)
Short and sweet: Jamie is a theatre nerd. a foodie. baby product expert. a passionate activist. pop culture trivia wizard. product reviewer. wine & coffee aficionado. a guncle to many. a Funko pop collector. David Rose's soulmate in another dimension of the multiverse.
Long form: Formerly known as "TheBabyGuyNYC", rebranded as his own name, Jamie Grayson, summer of 2019. Beginning as a theatre nerd, he became a renowned baby gear nerd after an exciting 4 1/2 year journey as a product demonstrator and personal shopper at buybuyBaby in Manhattan as well as a year at NYC's top birth education center. Armed with an Angry Baby and no filter, Jamie quickly became one of the most well-respected experts in the baby gear and child safety space for more than a decade. Now based in Denver, Colorado, Jamie is passionate about helping parents like you make decisions on the best baby gear you can use to make life simpler and more enjoyable through honest and entertaining product testing and reviews.
Prior to the pandemic, Jamie was often caught traveling the globe speaking at expectant parent events, sharing his daily life through Instagram and FB live videos and working directly with brands one-on-one. Now you'll find him running a really fun virtual baby registry event called Baby Registry Lab and is the creator of the Baby Gear Showdown! You may also know him to previously be attending musicals, hanging out at Alamo Drafthouse, but now he's pretty much always experimenting in the kitchen, & drinking copious amounts of coffee. And #wine. Let's not forget that!
