It's 8:00 am. James Butters gives 18-month-old Thomas his milk, then breakfast. After get-ting Thomas into his outdoor clothes, they head for the park to watch birds and play on the grass.With lunchtime drawing near, they're back home for an aftemoon of drawing, playing with cars,maybe watching some children's programs.

James isn't Thomas' dad. He is a nanny(保姆)-a man nanny, obviously, interestingly

termed a " manny" -specially trained and in his third.nannying position. At 27 , he cares for Thom-

It is catching on here in Britain, too. Earlier this year, Norland nanny college welcomed its firstfull-time man student, 19-year-old Peter Cummins in Wales. While some families find it difficult to accept the idea of a young man in a traditional nannying role , man nannies are increasingly popular.
