Cleofa Maria Mnene—Founder & CEO, Badalu Workers Agency | “The Nanny Guru”

I’m Cleofa Maria Mnene, a proud member of BNI Kenya and the Founder & CEO of Badalu Workers Agency—a leading Christian-based staffing and mentorship organization committed to empowering Africa’s women and youth.

At Badalu, we do more than recruit—we transform lives. We specialize in turning unskilled individuals into trusted, trained, and tested caregivers and support workers ready to serve in homes and businesses across the globe. My nickname, “The Nanny Guru,” stems from years of walking with young women, helping them find not only a career in caregiving and hospitality but also helping them rediscover their identity, confidence, and calling.

Under my leadership, Badalu has grown into the staffing agency of choice—serving both blue-collar and white-collar markets. From domestic staff to office assistants, cooks, cleaners, and facility managers, we pride ourselves in providing ethical, professional, and well-mentored workers who are ready for excellence.

With over 20 years of experience in finance, entrepreneurship, and human development, I have built sustainable models that link skills training to employment opportunities. Our mission is simple: empower, place, and uplift. Through BNI, I am looking to partner with like-minded leaders who believe in impact-driven hiring, mentorship, and social transformation.

If you’re looking for reliable staffing or a partner to support CSR projects in women and youth empowerment, let’s connect. At Badalu, we build people—and people build nations.
