Answer 3

Etymology references state that Nanny, as applied to a child care staff, was derived in Britain in the 1800's from "Ann". By extension the male childcare staff might be taken from "Andy". I doubt if Nandy would catch on.Other sources indicate that Nanny comes from the nickname for grandmother (Grandmothers often took the role of child care person) in Britain, probably from a child's pronunciation of "Gran" as "Nan". The male would be a mangled version of Grandpa, perhaps Gramp or Grump
