About My Big Buddy

We have always had the Nanny but now we have the ‘Manny’ – the male Nanny! The man has taken hold of a job traditionally held by the woman!

The ‘manny’ is fast becoming the latest ‘buzz word’ in Town and he is a highly sought after addition to the busy lives of London parents.

MY BIG BUDDY, London’s leading male nanny agency, was established in London in June 2006 by Annie and Susie, two young and vibrant Australian nannies who felt that some children would benefit from the encouragement, care and enthusiasm of an energetic male nanny. They now provide a successful ‘Big Buddy’ and ‘Manny’ service on either a full or part time basis, for party entertainment or just for the occasional few hours after school for fun and homework help.

What is a ‘Big Buddy’?

A Big Buddy is an energetic and enthusiastic male role model who can entertain and care for your children in a responsible and mature manner. Our Big Buddies have many different talents. Their skills range from various sports, many of them being coaches, to music, drama, languages and tutoring. Assistance with homework is no problem. Big Buddies are available on a casual basis or can be employed more permanently by taking out a membership with the agency.

What is a ‘Manny’?

A Manny is a male nanny. Mannies are employed by families on a permanent basis and are responsible for all child related family duties. Mannies can be employed for either full or part time placements and will be required to make a long term commitment to the family employing them.

All our Big Buddies and Mannies are extensively reference and CRB checked. Either Annie or Susie has met with each boy personally to asses their suitability to this kind of work. A minimum of two references are checked.
